Matt Chamberlain

Yeah.

And then Matt Chamberlain in '91, left.

Chamberlain.

Yep, Chamberlain.

You also brought in musicians you've admired for years.

What was it like hearing players like Robin Fink, Matt Chamberlain, Stella, Justin become part of this world you created?

Yeah, honestly, it was so much fun.

I mean, as you said, I just really admire them all so much as players.

And I received that gratefully.

And it gave me a chance to make a record with Jay Joyce and make a record with Frank Liddell and play in the studio with Matt Chamberlain on drums and try all these cool things that I might not otherwise have had the chance to try.

And I'm really proud of the music that I made during that Warner stretch.

uh boy i i wish that the industry worked more than like it does now in a lot of ways it's it's not unlike the first time you buy your own car or your own house you start to oh i'm gonna vacuum now i'm gonna mop i'm gonna go take this thing to the you know get an oil change pretty regularly because now it's up on it's on your shoulders to maintain it and i feel that way making this record it's like wow this really is mine to own and to shepherd into the world.

Hello to all of you in the friends and family row.

My name is Matt.

I'm Joey.

I'm Kristen.

And whether that's in the songs or whether that's at the live show, we'll take either one.

But this particular tour had so many of those moments, that element of surprise where the audience was just like, wow, is this happening? That was one of them.

Matt Chamberlain coming on stage was one of them.

There was so many gags this tour, so it was very satisfying for us as well.

And I'm Scott B. Bomar.

You're listening to Bleeding in the Dark, co-written and performed by our guests, Edie Brickell and Matt Chamberlain, with their group, World Famous Pets.

[upbeat rock music] Singer-songwriter Edie Brickell and drummer-composer Matt Chamberlain comprise one half of the group World Famous Pets, but they first began working together when Chamberlain joined Edie Brickell & New Bohemians before the band's second album, Ghost of a Dog, in 1990.

Edie first rose to prominence when the band's debut album, Shooting Rubber Bands at the Stars, was released in 1988 and was certified double platinum on the strength of the hit single, What I Am.

As of 2021, Edie Brickell & New Bohemians have released five studio albums.

In addition to her work with the band and three solo albums, Edie has collaborated with Harper Simon as The Heavy Circles, with Steve Gadd and others as The Gaddabouts, and more recently with the band Heavy MakeUp.

Notably, she has recorded two studio albums and one live album with Steve Martin, and the pair collaborated on the Broadway musical Bright Star.

In addition to her other various musical projects, Brickell tours with her husband, Paul Simon, for whom Matt Chamberlain plays drums.

I mean, it's just, you know, from Steve Gadd, Billy Martin, you know, like Milford Graves.

Mark Juliana, Matt Chamberlain, you know, the list goes on and on.

It's like just those dudes.

John Bonham, I loved Zeppelin as a kid.
