While John Carroll Kirby is celebrated for the catalogue of stars with whom he has played or collaborated (a list including Solange, Frank Ocean and Harry Styles), he is also renowned for his solo work. We catch up with the Grammy-nominated pianist and producer to discuss his most recent album, ‘Blowout’. We also hear from Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn, the duo known as Sylvan Esso. Over the past decade and four studio albums, the electronic pop duo has picked up two Grammy nominations and a legion of fans.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
