Soft Pass Podcast - Your Backstage Access
Soft Pass Podcast - Your Backstage Access[1] is a music interview podcast created by John Michaels in 2020. Now co-hosted by Alan Tilles, it is designed to provide listeners with an environment similar to one that would be achieved by a listener having a "Soft Pass" which entitles the holder to go backstage with musicians and other industry professionals. The format is casual (typically two guests per episode), and features discussions about each guest's history, interests and stories about life on the road.
John Michaels is a FOH (Front of House) audio engineer and tour manager. His 30 year background includes radio broadcasting and studio productions. His credits include working with Nirvana, Soundgarden, Orleans, Firefall, The Smithereens, Poco and a host of others. Alan Tilles is an entertainment attorney at Shulman Rogers in Potomac, Maryland, as well as a sax player who has played with some of the podcast guests.
Guests to date have featured classic rock artists such as Burleigh Drummond (Ambrosia), Mark Andes (Spirit, Firefall & Heart) and Rodney Justo (Atlanta Rhythm Section), current artists such as singer Goran Kralj (The Gufs) and Jason Malachi, classic rock artists who have replaced original members such as Eliot Lewis (AWB and Hall & Oates), Sandy Ficca (Firefall) and Dave Anderson (Atlanta Rhythm Section), and musicians who back up a variety of hit artists such as Herman Matthews (Tower of Power, Kenny Loggins, Tom Jones, Timothy B. Schmit), Michael Cahan (The Turtles, Harry Nilsson, Little Richard) and Michael Ramos (John Mellencamp, Patty Griffin).
To date, Episode 4 of the Podcast represents the only public discussion by singer Jason Malachi of the controversy over the Michael Jackson posthumous recordings.[2]
The Podcast is available on all major podcast sites.
