Over Jeff Goldblum’s 50-year acting career, he’s played dozens of unforgettable roles in movies like “Jurassic Park,” “Independence Day,” and “Thor: Ragnarok.” Off-camera, Jeff Goldblum is also a surprisingly dedicated jazz pianist who has been playing in clubs and bars for over 30 years. He’s released two albums with his band the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra. Their latest, “I Shouldn’t Be Telling You This,” features vocals from Gregory Porter, Fiona Apple, and Miley Cyrus.
On today’s episode Broken Record host Justin Richmond and producer Leah Rose talk to Goldblum about how he started playing piano in Pittsburgh cocktail lounges at 15, his morning practice routine, and about meeting two of Jeff’s heroes: Stevie Wonder and Muhammad Ali.
