About Elam Blackman

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My mother's hippie friend snuck me into a Grateful Dead concert at age 5. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Various Artists, Written In Their Soul: The Stax Songwriter Demos Two of my favorite worlds collide with the compilation. I used to be a DJ. I was primarily transfixed on old R&B. I love these demos. I can hear the process! Songwriting is most powerful when it doesn't get buried by production. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “The Murder Rides Again” This song is about my friends in music. My compatriots whom i love and respect. Our world. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Sitting at Crow's Nest at the Kerrville Folk Festival. Passing the guitar to people I admire and respect. Not being on a stage. Being in a circle.
