Christian sits down with Pantheon Podcast’s newest host, the incredibly talented Jesse Colin Young! He does have a new show to share with the world, called Tripping On My Roots and that is exactly what he does. Part travelogue, part interview, part personal journey, this podcast follows Jesse as he visits people and places that all had something to do with him becoming the artist that he is. Jesse Colin Young, is an American singer and songwriter. He was a founding member and lead singer of the 1960s group the Youngbloods. After their dissolution in 1972, Young embarked on a solo career, releasing a series of successful albums through Warner Bros. Records, including Song for Juli (1973), Light Shine (1974), Songbird (1975) and the live album On the Road (1976). Young continued to release music in the 1980s with Elektra Records and Cypress Records, before deciding to release music through his personal label, Ridgetop Music, in 1993. After the Mount Vision Fire in 1995, Young relocated with his family to a coffee plantation in Hawaii, periodically releasing music. Young was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2012, and decided to retire from music. He began performing again in 2016 with his son Tristan, releasing a new album Dreamers in 2019 through BMG. Young's song "Sunlight" was covered by Three Dog Night on their album Naturally (1970), and “Darkness, Darkness” by Robert Plant in 2002, which received a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance. https://www.jessecolinyoung.com/ https://www.jessecolinyoung.com/tripping Learn more about your ad choices.
