"2018 is when we found the right formula and things started to lock into place... we started to find our world and build out our world."

Each episode of The Jam will feature artist-inspired playlists and highlight the incredible teams they work alongside. The Jam was inspired by podcasts including Promoter 101 and Questlove Supreme, as well as JEMP Radio. Shank conceived the idea as an outlet for artists and industry stalwarts to tell untold stories, lift up musical heroes and emerging artists, and find the connective tissue between the jam scene and the mainstream. Having worked with everyone from Mickey Hart to Mickey Mouse, he lends an incredibly unique perspective in these free flowing unscripted conversations - taking fans all the way back to the seeds of the scene up through Horde and Bonnaroo to the present.
The first season of the podcast featured Randy Jackson, Robby Krieger (The Doors), Billy Cobham (Miles Davis), Bill Payne (Little Feat), Lonnie Jordan (WAR), George Porter Jr (The Meters), rock photographer Henry Diltz, Cymande, author Dean Budnick, and The Disco Biscuits.
Shank shares: “This season of The Jam really highlights that the scene is ageless and timeless with guests ranging in age from 29-83, all still active and engaged in growing the community. Some of these guests are old friends and others are folks I am meeting for the first time. We always find common ground talking about the community, collaborations and teamwork, which creates a beautiful canvas for a fluid free flowing conversation.”
