The Jazz Session #525: Chad Taylor

Drummer Chad Taylor's latest record is a collaboration with saxophonist Brian Settles and pianist Neil Podgurski called The Daily Biological (Cuneiform Records, 2020). In this interview, Taylor talks about his early days with Brian Settles and comedian Dave Chappelle; the origin of this trio; his work with the recently departed Henry Grimes; life during the pandemic; and more. / / / I've been recording conversations with jazz musicians since 2007. I think it's important work that deserves public support. I'd also like to be able to do it for my living.
