This is my first return guest. Yahzay has been incubating with his new record over the past several months, maybe his whole life. He colabs with some of the best musicians around. He's been doing a lot of work, personally and professionally and that's what this album Lionheart is all about.
It was an honor to check back in with him and get a sense of his studio.
You must see him play with Get Right Band wherever they play. You can still catch him play live every Monday with Rahm, Caromia, and Danny Iannucci at 5 Walnut Wine Bar in DT AVL. If you haven't been in a while you need to go back because they are breaking out all new material these days and they continue to develop musically.
Follow Yahzay on IG and download/listen to his work from the links below!
Thanks for listening.

I think most of the musicians in Asheville have heard of Ted or have trusted him with mixing their music. He's also an incredibly talented musician with next level chops on bass and drums. You can catch him playing drums with Ashes and Arrows, a country/rock vocal trio based here in Asheville with origins stretching all the way to New Zealand. You can also check out his project, Tu Koyote, with Jaze "Yahzay" Uries on youtube and spotify. OR you can go back and hear his bass playing with Caitlyn Krisko and The Broadcast on their album Battlecry.

If you're catching this episode when it releases you can catch him playing with Ashes and Arrows live 3/16/2024 at Asheville Music Hall with support by Hustle Souls.
