EPISODE 24 - Jon Lampley on Leaving It All On the Stage

Описание: Jon Lampley has made his name as a consummate player on trumpet and sousaphone. And if you haven't seen this man play, you are missing out on something magical. Jon sits down with Julian to discuss being a young kid, growing up in the church and bursting with musical inspiration. How he found trumpet and performing early and how he cut his teeth at The Ohio State University School of Music as well as within the schools Marching Band, which if you don't know their program, it's one of the best in the world! What leaving school and moving to New york city was like for him. The struggle of being an artist, but knowing there wasn't anything else he could do. How in 2015 he landed a gig in the house band on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, helmed by vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Louis Cato and led earlier by the jazz, pop and R&B sensation Jon Batiste. And also how he co-founded the stellar jazz-funk group Huntertones, and has performed in front of tens of thousands at amphitheaters, arenas and festivals with jam-rockers O.A.R. But nonetheless, how it's been a difficult yet worthy task for him to find the balance in his life, from the high that comes from being on stage, to being off of it and recognizing his worth without his instrument. How spending time with those who fill him and and recharge his battery are becoming vital to his lifestyle now, and how even the greatest and most high energy shows of his life can leave him feeling drained and uncertain of how to do it over and over again. But without question, the love of the art form will always bring him back, and his energy on that stage will leave you mesmerized. He recorded a live album recently called, "Night Service," that Julian got to attend the live show, and he says, "it was a religious experience for me." Go tune into asap and find out for yourself.
