Click the play button to listen
Today, the Spotlight shines On composer, mandolinist, multi-instrumentalist, teacher, and label founder Joe Brent.Joe has worked with artists ranging from Regina Spektor to the Philip Glass Ensemble, but his collaboration with Grammy-nominated violinist Sara Caswell and bassist Andrew Ryan in 9 Horses was the impetus for our time together. 9 Horses creates music between classical precision and folk intimacy with mandolins and violins. On their album, Strum (Adhyâropa Records, 2024), 25 musicians create what Joe calls "identifiably human-made music."
Joe shares the story behind 9 Horses and much more, including why making deeply human music matters now more than ever.
