E107 - Conducting Camp Home Again

E107 - Conducting Camp Home Again - Max and Barber spent the afternoon grilling and swimming and then sat down to try to record a podcast. Fortunately, their guest was Matt Butler, all-around mensch and the man behind The Everyone Orchestra. This past June, Matt had the unusual honor of conducting an all-improv set by The Disco Biscuits at Camp Home Again. The jams that set produced marked a turning point in the band's summer tour and unlocked sounds and textures that can be heard across many of their subsequent shows. In addition to breaking down the Camp Home Again jams, Matt reflects upon the influences that shaped his unique approach to improvisation, including his childhood exposure to the Eugene Symphony, his athletic background, and his creative collaborations with the late Ken Kesey.

This episode features excerpts of the following live performance:

• Camp Home Again Jams 1 and 3, from July 19, 2025 at Bearsville Theater, Woodstock, NY
