Genre: Music Concert Series

Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame recipients, Grammy Award winners, and legendary iconic musicians are featured on the all-new public television interview series Speakeasy. Each hour-long episode gives audiences revealing insights into the lives and careers of some of the music industry’s most revered figures, facilitated by each episode’s host — an interviewer personally selected by the principals. As a result, Speakeasy topics run the gamut from Nile Rodgers’ reminiscence of forming CHIC, and then going on to produce some of the biggest hits of our time, to Roger Waters’ insights into how to make the world a more peaceful place. Songwriting, politics, and his encounters with musical heroes Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson highlight John Mellencamp’s hour; Carlos Santana shares his spiritual beliefs and positions on social activism; and Rush bassist Geddy Lee opens up about how he maintains the strength of his voice after 40 years, as well as his Jewish upbringing by parents who met in a concentration camp during World War II.
