Known for his melodic songwriting and distinctive bass lines, Derby has remained a steady figure in the alternative and indie scenes for over three decades.
Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Derby began playing in the late 1980s. He co-founded The Dambuilders with guitarist Eric Masunaga and bassist Tryan George. The group relocated to Boston in 1990, where they became a staple of the city's thriving alternative rock scene alongside bands like the Pixies and Lemonheads.
With the addition of violinist Joan Wasser (later known as Joan As Police Woman), and drummer Kevin March, the band developed a unique, violin-driven power-pop sound. Derby served as a primary songwriter and lead vocalist, leading the band through several major label releases on Elektra Records, including their most successful album, Encendedor (1994), which featured the modern rock hit "Shrine."
In February, 1996, The Dambuilders opened up for Jeff Buckley in Australia. 
Beyond performing, Derby has built a successful career composing for film and television. His work includes music for the film Who's the Caboose? and the Disney hit Hannah Montana: The Movie. He also wrote the theme song for the popular political podcast and radio show The Majority Report with Sam Seder.
Today, Derby continues to produce and release music through his collective Gramercy Arms, maintaining his reputation as a "songwriter's songwriter" within the New York indie community.

I am thrilled and humbled to have the one and only Gene Bowen on Everyone Has A Jeff Buckley Story. Gene was Jeff’s tour manager from 1994-1997. After Buckley died, Bowen endeavored to start a nonprofit, Road Recovery, to educate people about addiction and other adversities in hopes of helping them find their way towards a healthy and happy future. 
He looked to publicize the many strengths and resources available from the music industry and the mental health field. With the support of Sony Music Entertainment and Dreamworks Records, as well as health professionals, Gene founded the Road Recovery Foundation in 1998.
 
Bowen oversees the charity’s after school Trax Programs throughout statewide Youth Clubhouses, which are sanctioned by New York State and funded by the US Dept of Justice, to provide youth with engaging mentoring and creative activities for their recovery from personal adversities. For their innovative non-profit services to support youth, Bowen with Road Recovery, has been awarded the President’s Award for Innovative Advocacy, the Mona Mansell Award by The Freedom Institute, and the Sunlight of the Spirit Award by the ASCAP Foundation. 

28 years later he is going strong. Thanks Gene, Jack Bookbinder, Tawny Lara and everyone at  Road Recovery who is trying to make tomorrow brighter than today!

Todd is a great trumpeter and he actually met Jeff a couple of times back in the early 90s in the lower east side of New York City. Additionally, he was a witness and participant to the birth of multiple national acts such as Blues Traveler, Spin Doctors and Norah Jones, not to mention the Jeff Buckley Band . This is a fun story so come along with me and Todd as we see what he, and others, were like in the 90's!

A lifelong musician and lover of all things audio, Todd Horton was born in Ithaca, NY in 1969.
Over the past 35 years, as a trumpet and flugelhorn player, Todd worked with artists and bands in multiple genres including the Spin Doctors, Buddy Miles, Aaron Neville, Ani Difranco, Richard Bona and many others. As a studio musician he worked in famed New York studios such as Electric Ladyland, Avatar, Sear Sound and Looking Glass, while also composing, performing and recording with his own jazz fusion group “D BOP.” In the 1990s, he produced albums at Phillip Glass’s Looking Glass Studios where he learned the ropes from in-house engineers and producers, eventually establishing his own boutique record label Soulsearch Music.
In 2010, from his home studio, Todd came up with the idea of a modular microphone stand he dubbed the “Mic Tree” that would aid in tracking drums in a limited space. He spent the better part of the next ten years designing and developing his stand ideas, building prototypes and endeavoring to eliminate as many of the most common issues with regular microphone stands as possible.
In 2021, satisfied he had a product that improved the lives of musicians, engineers and producers, he began building custom stands out of his workshop for engineers and musicians needing a space saving solution for multi-mic’ing drums, pianos and anything else. Demand grew and Base 4 Stands was born.

In 2021, satisfied he had a product that improved the lives of musicians, engineers and producers, he began building custom stands out of his workshop for engineers and musicians needing a space saving solution for multi-mic’ing drums, pianos and anything else. Demand grew and Base 4 Stands was born.

He is an bassist, guitarist, singer, songwriter, novelist and accomplished film composer. Born in Maryland in 1970, He came up in the Washington, D.C. hardcore scene as the original bassist for the punk band Swiz from 1987-1989. Afterwards, Larson gained prominence in the 1990s as the lead guitarist for the influential alternative rock band Shudder to Think, greatly contributing to their distinctive sound on the albums Pony Express Record and 50,000 BC. Following the band's hiatus, he released a transcendent solo album, Jealous God in 2001. It is a  personal favorite of mine, and a departure from Shudder to Think. 

Transitioning into film scoring, Larson has composed music for over 60 projects, including the Academy Award-winning Boys Don't Cry and others…such as Dirty Pretty Things, Lilya 4-ever, Juliet, Naked and Phone Booth. More recently Larson co-founded the Lumen Project, a nonprofit organizing immersive 6- to 24-hour experimental music and light events that encourage meditation and communal transcendence, with Larson himself frequently performing at these extended sonic experiences.

Being an impressionable teenager and burgeoning guitarist, this led Adam to create his own unique guitar style. In the 90’s Adam was a very successful performer, playing in many of Austin’s greatest clubs and winning accolades under the moniker, “Earthpig”.
In November, 1994, Adam, me and our friends Chris Searles and Seela Misra were booked to open for Jeff Buckley at the iconic Electric Lounge. 
In addition to music, Adam is an accomplished photographer and visual artist.  
In the 2010s Adam had a Food Truck in Marfa, Texas which gained a lot of national attention : Food Shark.

Matt discusses his 30 year theory of revival and says he was grateful to have been in studio to record the masterpiece “Grace”. 

Matt explains how the members of the band were thrown together (like a “stir fry”, despite not really knowing eachother at all).

Also, he says that there was a white knuckling effect of taking musical risks when he was playing and recording with Jeff Buckley. Matt explains that he realized he couldn’t continue with Jeff and that this was a scary decision. He says there were things going on that were a deal-breaker for him. 

Matt gives some insight into Buckley’s personality. Jeff was very funny. He also was very insightful into people’s emotional condition. 

We conclude by exploring the possibility that Buckley didn’t have an emotional protection that other performers, such as Rufus Wainwright, seem to need to survive long term in the music business. Matt talks about people with special needs and how they experience music. Finally, Matt describes the powerful symmetries between him, Rufus and Jeff, regarding father-son relationships. 
Thanks Matt. It was honor! You are a legend!

Come back next week for an in depth interview about Jeff Buckley.

For this season's final episode we have the great drummer himself: Matt Johnson. Matt played drums on Grace and toured with Jeff Buckley all through the world. Many of the guests on Everyone Has A Jeff Buckley Story have spoken about Matt and have given him substantial credit for the phenomenon that Jeff Buckley is and was. I wanted to find out what his drum influences were and how he got to the place he was in when he joined Jeff's band and recorded an album that Rolling Stone says is the 147th greatest album of all time and David Bowie considered the greatest. We also go into recording, playing with live acoustic instruments, what Matt looks for in a bass player, how he approaches triple meter, what his drum teacher told him when he was 11 years old and how he is still on that first drum lesson.
Thanks Matt. It was an honor to speak with you!

Musician Chris Garrigues talks about the time he and his band Doghouse rehearsed in a van and jammed on stage with Jeff Buckley at the Chicago House in Austin, Texas. jeff buckley, chris garrigues, doghouse, chicago house, kevin gant, seela No K-Rock Jeff Haley Chris Searles Chris Garrigues The Hallelujah Episode 1 1 The Hallelujah Episode full c4576ebd-bda3-4f17-b916-86356811ab1c https://shinelight.transistor.fm/s1/6 I’m your host Jeff Haley and this is a special episode of Everyone Has A Jeff Buckley Story. Today we will be looking at Hallelujah, a Leonard Cohen composition, crafted by John Cale, and perfected by Jeff Buckley

I asked some friends to tell me where they heard Hallelujah and what the song meant to them. And why it has become so famous


Grammy nominated keyboardist, singer and songwriter Rachel Eckroth  talked to me about the first time she heard Hallelujah

Django Haskins is a North Carolina native who cut his teeth writing songs in New York City during the 90s and aughts. He delivers cutting observations into Hallelujah's power

Kristina Vallejo has been a fan of Jeff Buckley as long as I can remember . I’ve always looked to her for answers to all things Buckley

Internationally Acclaimed Soprano, Arts Activist and Co-Founder of Sing For Hope Camille Zamora has insights into what made Buckley's voice so vulnerable and soaring
When I spoke with Johnny Goudie on episode 2, he also mentioned the differences between Jeff’s version, and Leonard Cohen’s
He returns…

As authors Alan Light and Malcolm Gladwell have  already demonstrated, the song has a twisted, if not miraculous lineage. 

Buckley got his reduced amount of song stanzas from John Cale, who had lowered it from 50. Cale was doing his friend Leonard Cohen a big favor by pruning his expansive Canadian ballad into a  trim masterpiece. 

It has been sung by:

Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson,  Justin Timberlake, Kate McKinnon,

Rufus Wainwright, KD Lang and countless other Canadians

But Buckley surpasses them all. He is like David with his Lyre singing at Sin-E on the lower east side, using Hallelujah as his closing number.  Right from the beginning it must have been  his most popular number

And that voice!


Rachel Eckroth has toured with Rufus Wainwright, who’s 2001 Shrek movie rendition pushed Hallelujah further into the stratosphere of classic songs


At what point did Hallelujah become the go-to number for large social gatherings? Kristina thinks it was Justin Timberlake 


Hallelujah,  a word  the whole world knows

Kristina brings up an important point. Is the song about love or is it about God? 

Could it be about both? Look how it ties Jeff Buckley’s whole album together . 

It is called Grace and Hallelujah with its slow heartbeat and holy cry correlates with the spiritual, religious side of the album. It even sounds like it was recorded in a cathedral. 

Yet it’s also a song about love, which would align it with the album’s relationship songs like Last Goodbye and Lover, You Should’ve Come Over, which often have that “maximalist” sound. 

Simone Weil says there are two things that pierce the heart: beauty ….and affliction.

Grace the album has both and this Hallelujah definitely does


To me Hallelujah is really a song about how the pain of love is the thing that will bring you closest to God

Johnny, who was a young performer himself in 1995 saw Jeff Buckley at Tower Records in Austin. Jeff and Johnny discuss the Buckley style and spirit with personal anecdotes and observations. 

Theme Music “Grace” Live from Chicago


Johnny Goudie is a Cuban-American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumental musician, record producer and podcaster based in Austin, Texas. Through his four-decade career, Johnny's musical experiences span the artistic gauntlet and include being the frontman of many bands including Goudie (Elektra Records), the guitarist/keyboardist/backing vocalist for renowned touring acts like Ian Moore & Bodeans, a songwriter working with the likes of Jane Wiedlin, Charlotte Caffey and Kathy Valentine (Go-Go's), a solo artist capable of revealing a previously unseen intimacy, and of course, keyboardist/vocalist for SKYROCKET! In the spring and summer of 2021, Johnny will be releasing singles monthly.
 

In 2011 Johnny took his talents to the world of podcasting and launched “How Did I Get Here?”, an audio segment that takes the form of a casual living room conversation while simultaneously packing the punch of a formal interview. With thousands of subscribers, the show has garnered a worldwide fanbase through Johnny's curiosity and disarming sense of humor. He’s hosted renowned guests like Ian McLagan (The Faces, The Rolling Stones), Styx, John Doe, as well as up and comers like Jackie Venson and Black Pumas. What was first an archive of Austin music history is quickly becoming a chronicle of music beyond city limits.

]]> Episode 2 - Part 1

Jeff interviews Johnny Goudie on the 11th Anniversary of his masterful podcast “How Did I Get Here?” (recorded on 8/10/2022). Johnny has been a friend for years and has interviewed Twang Twang Shock A Boom frontman Davíd Garza on his podcast several times.

Johnny, who was a young performer himself in 1995 saw Jeff Buckley at Tower Records in Austin. Jeff and Johnny discuss the Buckley style and spirit with personal anecdotes and observations. 

Theme Music “Last Goodbye” Live at Sin-E


Johnny Goudie is a Cuban-American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumental musician, record producer and podcaster based in Austin, Texas. Through his four-decade career, Johnny's musical experiences span the artistic gauntlet and include being the frontman of many bands including Goudie (Elektra Records), the guitarist/keyboardist/backing vocalist for renowned touring acts like Ian Moore & Bodeans, a songwriter working with the likes of Jane Wiedlin, Charlotte Caffey and Kathy Valentine (Go-Go's), a solo artist capable of revealing a previously unseen intimacy, and of course, keyboardist/vocalist for SKYROCKET! In the spring and summer of 2021, Johnny will be releasing singles monthly.
 

In 2011 Johnny took his talents to the world of podcasting and launched “How Did I Get Here?”, an audio segment that takes the form of a casual living room conversation while simultaneously packing the punch of a formal interview. With thousands of subscribers, the show has garnered a worldwide fanbase through Johnny's curiosity and disarming sense of humor. He’s hosted renowned guests like Ian McLagan (The Faces, The Rolling Stones), Styx, John Doe, as well as up and comers like Jackie Venson and Black Pumas. What was first an archive of Austin music history is quickly becoming a chronicle of music beyond city limits.
