E6 S2 Josh “Socalled” Dolgin
This interview really had to be a longer one because Josh just does so much creatively, and I had so much I wanted to ask him about! I've put Timestamps in the description of the episode in both video and podcast format. We start with his remix of Curried Soul for CBC radio's daily show As It Happens, and circle around to topics including: sampling, Yiddish culture, changes in the industry from when he got his start selling CDs mail-order to touring internationally and collaborating with many musicians, including the funk legend Fred Wesley, David Krakauer, Kiran Ahulwalia, Itzhak Perlman, Theodore Bikel, writing musical theatre, puppets, art...here's a chance for all of us to get to know the creative force known as Josh "Socalled" Dolgin.
Josh “Socalled” Dolgin: “And the things that I loved as a child, I still love them. I can sort of, in a weird way, remember the vibe of being a kid. And that probably comes out in the playfulness of the shows that I do.”
If you're wondering about his stage name, you should watch the NFB movie The Socalled Movie Josh is starting to tour again, check for dates: Socalled Music Here’s a link for the Second Season puppet musical featuring Fred Wesley: Second Season
