  • Show notes:

    Matt discusses his 30 year theory of revival and says he was grateful to have been in studio to record the masterpiece “Grace”.

    Matt explains how the members of the band were thrown together (like a “stir fry”, despite not really knowing eachother at all).

    Also, he says that there was a white knuckling effect of taking musical risks when he was playing and recording with Jeff Buckley. Matt explains that he realized he couldn’t continue with Jeff and that this was a scary decision. He says there were things going on that were a deal-breaker for him.

    Matt gives some insight into Buckley’s personality. Jeff was very funny. He also was very insightful into people’s emotional condition.

    We conclude by exploring the possibility that Buckley didn’t have an emotional protection that other performers, such as Rufus Wainwright, seem to need to survive long term in the music business. Matt talks about people with special needs and how they experience music. Finally, Matt describes the powerful symmetries between him, Rufus and Jeff, regarding father-son relationships.
    Thanks Matt. It was honor! You are a legend!

  • Part 1 of 2
    A note to our listeners: This is an expanded version of this interview. The video version is available at:
    https://youtu.be/PkKqM9hVw3I
    Come back next week for an in depth interview about Jeff Buckley.

    For this season's final episode we have the great drummer himself: Matt Johnson. Matt played drums on Grace and toured with Jeff Buckley all through the world. Many of the guests on Everyone Has A Jeff Buckley Story have spoken about Matt and have given him substantial credit for the phenomenon that Jeff Buckley is and was. I wanted to find out what his drum influences were and how he got to the place he was in when he joined Jeff's band and recorded an album that Rolling Stone says is the 147th greatest album of all time and David Bowie considered the greatest. We also go into recording, playing with live acoustic instruments, what Matt looks for in a bass player, how he approaches triple meter, what his drum teacher told him when he was 11 years old and how he is still on that first drum lesson.
    Thanks Matt. It was an honor to speak with you!

  • Roxanne tells us about the very first time she heard Jeff Buckley on the car radio, the first time she saw him play live and later, when she moved to New York and actually played at Cafe Sin-E where Buckley made a name for himself. Interspersed are relationships and how Buckley was almost a shadowy figure thorough-out that time in her personal and professional life.

  • Host Jeff Haley has known Chris Garrigues since the 1990's. Their bands Doghouse and Twang Twang Shock A Boom played many of the same venues. In 1993 ( or maybe February 1994?) Doghouse performed at the Chicago House in support of Jeff Buckley. The evening transpired in a highly unusual way and Chris tells the story as a hilarious slacker/noir monologue. You will not forget the final encore that Jeff Buckley and Doghouse performed together. Chris is philosophical as he looks back on the not yet famous Buckley, his reactions and those of the audience.

  • I’m your host Jeff Haley and this is a special episode of Everyone Has A Jeff Buckley Story. Today we will be looking at Hallelujah, a Leonard Cohen composition, crafted by John Cale, and perfected by Jeff Buckley

    I asked some friends to tell me where they heard Hallelujah and what the song meant to them. And why it has become so famous

    Grammy nominated keyboardist, singer and songwriter Rachel Eckroth talked to me about the first time she heard Hallelujah

    Django Haskins is a North Carolina native who cut his teeth writing songs in New York City during the 90s and aughts. He delivers cutting observations into Hallelujah's power

    Kristina Vallejo has been a fan of Jeff Buckley as long as I can remember . I’ve always looked to her for answers to all things Buckley

    Internationally Acclaimed Soprano, Arts Activist and Co-Founder of Sing For Hope Camille Zamora has insights into what made Buckley's voice so vulnerable and soaring
    When I spoke with Johnny Goudie on episode 2, he also mentioned the differences between Jeff’s version, and Leonard Cohen’s
    He returns


    As authors Alan Light and Malcolm Gladwell have already demonstrated, the song has a twisted, if not miraculous lineage.

    Buckley got his reduced amount of song stanzas from John Cale, who had lowered it from 50. Cale was doing his friend Leonard Cohen a big favor by pruning his expansive Canadian ballad into a trim masterpiece.

    It has been sung by:

    Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Justin Timberlake, Kate McKinnon,

    Rufus Wainwright, KD Lang and countless other Canadians

    But Buckley surpasses them all. He is like David with his Lyre singing at Sin-E on the lower east side, using Hallelujah as his closing number. Right from the beginning it must have been his most popular number

    And that voice!

    Rachel Eckroth has toured with Rufus Wainwright, who’s 2001 Shrek movie rendition pushed Hallelujah further into the stratosphere of classic songs


    At what point did Hallelujah become the go-to number for large social gatherings? Kristina thinks it was Justin Timberlake

    Hallelujah, a word the whole world knows

    Kristina brings up an important point. Is the song about love or is it about God?

    Could it be about both? Look how it ties Jeff Buckley’s whole album together .

    It is called Grace and Hallelujah with its slow heartbeat and holy cry correlates with the spiritual, religious side of the album. It even sounds like it was recorded in a cathedral.

    Yet it’s also a song about love, which would align it with the album’s relationship songs like Last Goodbye and Lover, You Should’ve Come Over, which often have that “maximalist” sound.

    Simone Weil says there are two things that pierce the heart: beauty 
.and affliction.

    Grace the album has both and this Hallelujah definitely does

    To me Hallelujah is really a song about how the pain of love is the thing that will bring you closest to God


    Theme music "Hallelujah" Live at Sin-E

  • Author Rose Smith tells host Jeff Haley about when she saw Jeff Buckley and his band at Liberty Lunch in Austin, Texas in 1995. Rose went with their mutual friend Lisa Hargus. Rose talks about a typical female response to Buckley's performance. Rose and Lisa saw Buckley backstage and Rose imagines what it would have been like if she had spoken with him. They try to identify what made Buckley shy. Also, they discuss what makes Jeff Buckley and his album Grace such a powerful artistic experience. The episode ends with a recording of Jeff Buckley singing Van Morrison's "Sweet Thing" from Live at Sin-E. Rose tells us why Buckley's guitar playing is almost as important as his singing. Rose muses on Buckley's untimely death.

  • Episode 2 - Part 2

    Jeff interviews Johnny Goudie on the 11th Anniversary of his masterful podcast “How Did I Get Here?” (recorded on 8/10/2022). Johnny has been a friend for years and has interviewed Twang Twang Shock A Boom frontman Davíd Garza on his podcast several times.

  • In our debut episode (1 of 8) Chris Searles tells the host, Jeff, about hearing an advance copy of Grace in 1994 and how it changed his perspective on music and playing the drums.

    Chris Searles is a native Austinite and founder/director of BioIntegrity, a research-based advocate for protection and restoration of Earth's biospheric integrity. He devotes his time to producing content, events, and education that facilitate "biospheric literacy" and investments and actions which support the most effective solutions to our global climate and species extinction crises. Chris is also starting a new aspect on local, tree-based, drought reversal soon.


    The BioIntegrity community has helped fund protection of more than 320,000 acres of old growth tropical forests since 2014. Those efforts are helping to save thousands of species from extinction, keep more than 85 million tons of greenhouse gasses out of the atmosphere (enough to offset Austin, TX's community carbon footprint for 5+ years), institute land occupation rights for more than 400 Indigenous communities around the world, keep the planet cool, and more. Chris is also co-founder, creator and executive editor of AllCreation.org, a living archive of faith and spiritual practice views on human relationships with Earth's other species and environment. AllCreation has more than 400 posts exploring sacred texts and contemporary views, and is currently read in +150 countries. Visit biointegrity.net and allcreation.org for more info.
