Maximum Reinhardt Show
Episode 54: March 2025
Guest: Jessica Lauren
The Maximum Reinhardt Show features the voyages along rarely-travelled musical waters that became Max’s version of the Late Junction template, with sound art, dub, rural blues, contemporary classical, free jazz, folk, electro acoustic, rap, noise, and other sonic flotsam and jetsam floating in on the tides.
A producer, composer, Radio 3 DJ and alternative music aficionado, Max Reinhardt has over many years assembled an extensive collection of rare recordings spanning world music, jazz, electronica and experimental music, which he has made available exclusively to Morley College, its students, and contributors to Morley Radio.
In this episode, Max chats to pianist, keyboard player and composer, Jessica Lauren. Jessica has been a cult figure on the UK’s soul and jazz scene since the early 1990s. Jessica’s philosophy is to try to make beautiful, emotional, melodic music which is seemingly simple and always accessible.
