“I think that exploring new sounds is something that our future audiences deserve because there is so much more to say.”
Before this episode, Erich and I had never spoken outside of interactions on social media. However, from those interactions, I had the sense this would be a fun and welcoming sort of conversation. That proved to be very true! We have already agreed to have him back for a Part 2, and since I am announcing that here in writing, it definitely has to happen.
Erich is the type of musician who not only creates opportunities for himself but creates opportunities for other musicians. From our conversation, it seems clear to me that when he sets out to do something, he makes it happen. We go into great detail about the many of those opportunities: starting a record label, founding the A/Tonal Ensemble with his wife, America By project, and other topics like the future of college music program curriculums, comedian Jin Bruer, and so much more on episode 19 of The Making Noise Podcast.
I hope you enjoy!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
