In the second episode of Season 2, I'm delighted that we have Dave Randall with us as our special guest where we're talking about the mindset aspects of curiosity, identity, collaboration, the power of our instinct. For me, my chat with Dave highlights why living our life that aligns with what we value most is one of the most important paths we can take.
Dave is a guitarist, producer, composer, author and social activist. Musically, he has worked with artists like Faithless, Sinead O’Connor, Dido, Emilíana Torrini, and Roland Gift and contributed to the 1 Giant Leap Project, featuring musicians from all around the world including Neneh Cherry and Michael Stipe.
His current collective is called Slovo with singer Barbarella and their latest album is called Bread & Butterflies. It expands previous collaborations with hip hop innovator Mike Ladd. And Barbarella is a truly remarkable vocalist, switching between loose Gwen Stefani like vocals and on Call Me, powerful, soaring opera. You can’t put a genre on it and that’s a good thing to my mind. We’ve been taught to compartmentalise too many things for too long.
Dave is also the author of the excellent “Sound System: The Political Power of Music” – a fascinating read on the power of music for both protesters and agitators and for the ruling corporate and governmental classes. The paradox of protest and pacification.
