Sometimes perspectives change... It's a new year and it's a new episode as we're already knee deep into Shortlists and Awards season consideration and it makes sense. We had the pleasure of talking with Singer/Songwriter/Composer/Actor Sara Bareilles about her song 'Salt Then Sour Then Sweet' which was used in the new documentary on Apple+ 'Come See Me In The Good Light'. 'Come See Me in the Good Light' is a poignant and unexpectedly funny love story about poets Andrea Gibson and Megan Falley facing an incurable cancer diagnosis with joy, wit and an unshakable partnership. Through laughter and unwavering love, they transform pain into purpose, and mortality into a moving celebration of resilience. I'll admit that when watching this for the first time, I actually felt a little uncomfortable watching as I was having trouble with as it made me uncomfortable watching it as it felt in conflict with my own emotions about being a care giver for a family member with terminal cancer, I felt uncomfortable viewing it all. That is until the end credits and this song came on.... Using the words of Andrea Gibson after she died, what Bareilles and Brandi Carlile do here is sum up what is a horrible emotional experience into a 3.5 minute experience that had this critic blubbering in tears. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Sara to talk about how she got involved in the project, the pressure of a job like this, working and repurposing someone else's art and the importance of storytelling leading with love. 'Come See Me in the Good Light' is on Apple+ now.
On this week’s Talkhouse Podcast we’ve got an award-winning multi-hyphenate that you may have seen on TV, a Broadway stage, or packing out a big theater near you in conversation with a guy whose equally riveting work has mostly been behind the scenes: Sara Bareilles and Rob Moose. I’m not sure where to begin with Sara Bareilles’ resume: She found fame with her music, with songs like “Brave” and “Love Song” topping the charts. But in addition to making huge records, she’s been a judge on NBC’s The Sing-Off , she wrote the music and lyrics for—then eventually starred in—the Broadway production of Waitress , and she co-created the Apple TV series Little Voice and acted in the Peacock series Girls5Eva . And honestly, this is all just the tip of the iceberg. You will be surprised by how remarkably down to earth she seems in this conversation—I was. Rob Moose met Bareilles when he was asked to do some string arrangements for her at a Lincoln Center event organized by Ben Folds. For the past 20 years, that’s the kind of work Moose has mostly done: His expert strings have added color and wonder to music by everyone from Sufjan Stevens and The Decemberists to Taylor Swift. He’s been a member of Bon Iver and performed live with Jay-Z. Chances are very good that you’ve heard him without ever hearing his name, because it wasn’t until this year that he decided to release music under his own name: It was while on tour with Paul Simon that Moose had the idea to collaborate with some amazing singers, setting their voices to his strings—and nothing more. The result is an EP called Inflorescence , which features Emily King, Brittany Howard, Phoebe Bridgers, Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon, and—perhaps you guessed by now—Sara Bareilles. It’s a fantastic, unexpected set of songs that brings out the best in both the strings and the voices. Check out a little bit of Moose and Bareilles on the song “Extract.” In this conversation, these two chat about how a Craigslist ad changed Moose’s life, about how Bareilles was a bit gunshy about collaborating early in her career, and about how you’ve got to really want to live in New York City—which they both seem to want to do. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast and thanks to Rob Moose and Sara Bareilles for chatting.
