That Was Us with Julia Nunes

46:55

The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

Anna is a bad ass who runs a festival called GirlSchool and I got her on That Was Us to talk break ups. The journal she found had a 10 year break between entries, leaving off on a college boyfriend break up, and starting up with a more adult break up, with a lot of similarities. sponsors: square space: www.squarespace.com Aaptive: www.aaptiv.com/signup/monthly?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=podcastname&utm_content=main_cta…
