Terri Lyne Carrington, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock: "We're not really in control..."

Author: Craig Garber May 14, 2021 Duration: 1:34:15

Terri talks about her "calling" to music, hanging out with Ella Fitzgerand who introduced to Oscar Peterson (at age 11) and how this changed the trajectory of her life… fitting in with "the guys" but softening over time, why she started making her own LPs and becoming an artist (VERY cool), great stories about playing with Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Stan Getz, Yellowjackets, Nona Hendryx, Bill Withers… the origins of her current band and how they put Waiting Game together, the process of combining music with emotionally heavy songs, focusing on the good, funniest thing that happened to her on stage (playing with Stevie Wonder), honesty & authenticity and much more. INCREDIBLY cool vibes, great convo with a lovely human being!

There's a particular kind of conversation that happens when a guitarist picks up an instrument, but the real stories often come when they put it down. Everyone Loves Guitar, hosted by Craig Garber, lives in that space. It’s less a formal interview and more like pulling up a chair in a backstage lounge or a quiet corner of a studio. Garber’s guests-celebrity players, revered musicians, and behind-the-scenes industry figures-open up in ways that go far beyond gear and technique. You’ll hear the unvarnished backstories, the pivotal moments that defined their careers, and the personal philosophies that drive them. This podcast digs into the history of the music itself and the people who make it, revealing the life lessons and personal development that come from a lifetime dedicated to art. Each episode feels like a deep, meandering chat with a fascinating friend who just happens to have an incredible tale about life on the road, the creative process, or the sheer joy of a perfect riff. It’s for anyone who believes the guitar is more than wood and strings; it’s a conduit for human experience. Tune in for honest talk about the music, the struggles, and the triumphs that resonate long after the last note fades.
