A.J. Croce | Interview

In this episode, we're speaking with an artist whose musical journey is as compelling as his sound: A.J. Croce. While many recognize the name Croce from his father, the legendary singer/songwriter Jim Croce (who wrote classics like "Operator," "Time in a Bottle," "Bad Bad Leroy Brown," and many more), A.J. has carved out his own distinct path in the music world. With a career spanning over three decades, he's been a working musician since he was 15 years old, releasing more than 10 albums and collaborating with icons ranging from James Brown to Willie Nelson, showcasing his prowess as a virtuoso piano player and a versatile singer-songwriter. A.J.'s latest album, Heart Of The Eternal, produced by Shooter Jennings, is a testament to his evolving artistry. In our conversation, A.J. delves into the inspirations behind his new album, his experiences growing up in a musical household, and how he's embraced his father's legacy while continuing his own musical prowess. He shares insights into his creative process, the stories behind his songs, and the personal experiences that have shaped his music. Enjoying the show?
