Episode 9 - Michael Kang of The String Cheese Incident

Michael Kang of The String Cheese Incident joins The Nature of Music for an insightful and fun interview brimming with stories of outdoor adventure. In a fascinating conversation, he reveals the origins of his musical career in Alaska - and in a chance encounter in Crested Butte, Colorado. Kang shares tales from the rainforests of Costa Rica, to the beaches of New Zealand, to the mountains of British Columbia. He reflects on his work converting wastewater to algae biofuels and talks about his partnership with a company advancing a new carbon capture technology (coming soon to businesses that utilize CO2 - from restaurants and bars, to greenhouses, to industrial facilities). Along the way, he tells the nature-inspired backstory to String Cheese songs such as Desert Dawn, Water, and Round the Wheel.
