Episode Description

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Ziggy Marley.

Marley was only 12 years old when his father died, but he’s carried on his legacy, putting out multiple albums, launching a record label, and producing the 2024 film Bob Marley: One Love.

Before the release of his ninth full-length, Brightside, Marley stopped by the Artist Friendly studio for a grounded, soulful conversation with Madden. The two go deep on the making of his record, the song he wrote as a love letter to his father, and what it means to find your path without imitating someone else.

“We all have a purpose here, so I’m just doing my part,” he tells Madden. “I’m not trying to be the brain if I’m the heart.”
