Vince Gill: Patience and Digging Great Songs Out of the Dirt, EP. 3
Today we welcome the incomparable Vince Gill to the show. I’m not going to lie, I was a little nervous to talk to Vince – I mean, he’s Vince Gill! But this effortlessly unfolded into a beautiful conversation. In this episode, we dive into our mutual respect for Guy Clark and Mavis Staples, the fruits of patience, and our shared realized dream of hearing Emmylou Harris sing our song. Thanks to our producers Jaimee Harris and Olivia Management.
Vince’s incredible Fifty Years from Home EPs are everywhere you enjoy music.

Aaron Lee Tasjan: Consequences, Curiosity, and Co-Writing, EP.2
Today we welcome the powerhouse singer, songwriter, producer, and artist to the core, Aaron Lee Tasjan, to the show. In addition to being a wonderful standalone artist, Aaron has a long history as one of the most sought-after collaborators in music today–working with New York Dolls, Drivin N Cryin, Todd Snider, and most recently, The Wallflowers. In this episode we discuss collaboration, consequences, and discipline. We also step back into the mystery of the trance we both found ourselves in while writing the album’s title track and the namesake of this podcast, "Reckoning." Aaron’s new record, Get Over It, Underdog, is available everywhere now. Thanks to our producers Jaimee Harris and Olivia Management.

Beth Nielsen Chapman: Magic and Heartbox Hits, EP. 1
Today I’m thrilled to welcome one of my dearest friends, Beth Nielsen Chapman. She is the songwriter I’ve co-written the most songs with. Beth is constantly creating; she arrived to our studio with a capo she bedazzled herself. She’s a hall of fame songwriter, a spectacular teacher, and I think she’s made of magic. In this episode, we discuss how we stay curious, hit money vs. heart money, and how we’ve navigated twenty years of collaboration and friendship. Beth’s latest record, CrazyTown, is available everywhere you enjoy music. You can find links to album Beth’s socials and website below. You can also find links to everything Reckoning and Mary Gauthier below. The new podcast Reckoning with Mary Gauthier is on The BGS podcast network. We’d love it if you’d give us a review and a follow. Thanks to our producers Jaimee Harris and Olivia Management.
