James Bay

On this week's episode Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter James Bay joins host Steve Baltin to share a playlist of protest songs from his whole life, from the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, CSNY and Nina Simone, and more. And he talks about how those artists have influenced his own work. 

"I'm drawing on whatever Neil Young has said, or Bill Withers. or Joni Mitchell from a kind of humanity perspective. It's so resonant to me, I'm influenced forever by this and then it falls out in a unique new way in songs of mine," he says.
