Well, this is another milestone for Big Yellow Podcast: our first guest who has sold out Madison Square Garden.
My guest today is the exceptionally talented Lizzy McAlpine, who is scheduled to play MSG in June of 2027, but that’s frankly just one bit of her incredible resume. She’s also acted on Broadway and she just recently released her fourth studio album, Angel, which is much of the focus of our conversation here.
She’s also, of course, a huge fan of Joni’s, as you’ll be able to tell from our chat and from listening to Angel, which was inspired heavily by albums like Blue and Hejira.
But I’ll let Lizzy do that explaining! More information about Lizzy’s music and her tour can be found on her website (https://www.lizzymcalpine.com/).
As always, thanks for listening x

A Conversation With Naomi in Blue
I must thank my friend Matthew Ingate for getting me connecting with Naomi in Blue, my guest for this episode. I can’t emphasize enough how grateful I am that many of you out there have helped point me in the right direction in terms of incredible interview guests.
The British-Chilean singer-songwriter Naomi in Blue — she’ll explain her stage name in this episode, fear not — has released her debut (!!) album, Is This Body Mine? and it’s an wonderfully visceral piece of work. She draws from Joni, but you’ll also here essences of people like Patti Smith, Fiona Apple and Nico here.
More on Naomi’s music on her Bandcamp page (https://naomiinblue.bandcamp.com/).
Thanks for listening x

A Conversation With Brianna Falcone
We’re on a bit of a roll here at Big Yellow Pod. Today I present you with a wonderful conversation I had with Brianna Falcone, a singer-songwriter based in Los Angeles — I stumbled across a video of her covering Joni on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/briannafalcone/?hl=en) of all things.
As we note in the show, Brianna has a new song coming out on September 12th, which she recorded live, outside under a tree. But there’s plenty more of her work to explore via her website (https://www.briannafalcone.com/) if you should choose.
As always, thanks for listening x
