This week we dive into the heart of American music history with Grammy‑winning author, educator and filmmaker Rob Bowman. His new book, Land of a Thousand Sessions, uncovers the story of Muscle Shoals — the small Alabama town that became the “Hit Recording Capital of the World.” Bowman spent years interviewing the legendary musicians, producers, and hidden heroes behind the sound, many speaking on the record for the very first time. Paired with rare documents and decades of research, this is the definitive Muscle Shoals story. Fresh off his Peabody‑winning HBO Stax documentary, Bowman joins us to share the magic behind the songs, the sessions, and the artists who shaped modern music.
