Since You’ve Asked
In the 1960s, Collins evoked both the idealism and steely determination of a generation united against social and environmental injustices. Five decades later, her luminescent presence shines brightly as new generations bask in the glow of her iconic 60-album body of work, thriving in the music industry for over a half a century. Her latest project, SINCE YOU`VE ASKED is an audio podcast series focusing on some of Collins` favorite musicians, artists and luminaries from her colorful life. A perfect platform for Collins, as her recordings of musical greats like Randy Newman, Jimmy Webb, Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen helped launch their careers and create the foundation of our current pop history. The format of the show is conversation between Collins and a fellow musicians, songwriters, poets, authors, and creative thinkers. The project will launch July 2021 and will feature two studio podcasts a month. Future guests will be Jeff Daniels, Julia Cameron, Ben Harper, Pat Allerton and more… At age 82, Collins defies all preconceived notions of what an octogenarian life should be. She maintains a vigorous tour schedule and consistently strives to learn new things, delves into the important questions and forges new paths like creating a Podcast series – SINCE YOU’VE ASKED.
