Michael Bradford Podcast Features Deep Purple's Roger Glover as Debut Guest
The Californer/10355480

LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Michael Bradford — the multi-platinum producer, songwriter, and composer behind decades of work with Ringo Starr, Madonna, Deep Purple, Dave Stewart, Stevie Nicks, Ben Folds, and more just launched his new podcast, Creativity: Something from Nothing. The debut episode features Roger Glover of Deep Purple — Glover's most personal interview to date.

Creativity: Something from Nothing is not another industry interview show. Each episode, Bradford sits down with friends and collaborators — icons of literature, music, film, and science — to trace the origin story of their creative lives.

"What's the source of creativity? Where do great ideas come from?" Bradford asks. "What are the things that inspired them that might not even be related to the thing they made? What is the seed that grew into the tree? They've all got something to say — because it's all connected."
