Very cool interview with Donny McCaslin by @lawrenceperyer for @thetonearm, on McCaslin's newest album and his symphony treatment of David Bowie's Blackstar. McCaslin was the saxophonist on Blackstar, an album which we will be spotlighting here on 1001 Other Albums for its 10th (!) anniversary next January.

On today's new episode of the Spotlight On podcast, saxophonist Donny McCaslin joins us to discuss his new album, 'Lullaby for the Lost,' his creative partnership with producer Tim Lefebvre, and how influences from Neil Young to Nine Inch Nails influence his sound. We also explore his Blackstar Symphony project and what it means to maintain artistic integrity while pushing musical limits.
McCaslin, known for his pivotal role on David Bowie's final album Blackstar, continues to forge new paths in contemporary jazz fusion with his latest release on Edition Records. The conversation covers his collaborative "team ball" approach, working with legendary producer David Fridmann, and finding the sweet spot between controlled chaos and emotional authenticity in his music.
It's a wonderful conversation … be sure to tune in: https://www.spotlightonpodcast.com/donny-mccaslin-from-stadium-jazz-to-lost-lullabies-bowie-saxophone/
Donny McCaslin teases upcoming new album, Lullaby for the Lost, with lead single ‘Celestial’
Seen Donny Mccaslin many times, but that had to be the best. Chunky textures from sax, guitar, and harmonica, the heaviest drumming from Blake and wow the swing from Scott Colley, downright groovy. Wow!

New album from #DonnyMcCaslin out today! Such a great quartet, with #JasonLindner, #TimLefebvre, and #MarkGuiliana (i.e., the band on #DavidBowie's Blackstar). One of the best shows I've ever been to is seeing these guys play the local #jazz fest.

Only just heard this single from Donny McCaslin's new album. Dark jazz, weird dubby basslines, skitting d n' b beats, yells of primal rage, I reckon you know who would have loved it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLRlNIK4Llw #DonnyMcCaslin #BodyBlow #Bowie
