Butchulla beats, Baez on the big screen, and Remembering Robbie Robertson and Rodriguez

Karen O'Connor is a long-time friend of Joan Baez, and one of the directors for the new documentary Joan Baez I am a Noise, which tells the story of the iconic American singer, songwriter and activist. It follows her in the lead up to her last tour. With a career that has spanned over 60 years, Joan has accumulated a lifetime of joy and heartbreak, and a trove of diaries, tape letters and paintings that have captured her own private moments that have run parallel, and at times intersected with major historical events. 

Karen talks about the unique journey that unfolds throughout the film as Joan candidly reflects on her career.

As a reflection of his Butchulla, Garrwa, South-Sea Islander and Tongan backgrounds, Fred Leone's music is captivating cocktail of Language, collaboration and storytelling. He speaks to Andrew about his own musical upbringing and how he works with other musicians including trials (A.B. Original), Birdz and Samuel Pankhurst.

And we remember the legendary musicians - Robbie Robertson of The Band, and Sugar Man Rodriguez.
