Paris-born Wally Badarou traces his ancestry to Benin, West Africa—but he is thoroughly and unmistakably French. When it comes to music, however, his inspiration reflects a rich blend of international influences. A pioneering keyboardist, producer, and session musician, Wally has long embraced technology as an integral part of his creative process—one of the key motivations that led him to collaborate with the band Level 42. If you’ve heard their music, you’ve heard Wally’s touch: his musical structures, melodies, and productions are woven into many of their biggest hits. Although he was never an official member of the band, he co-wrote many of their more prominent songs, shaping the band’s signature sound. Beyond that, his remarkable career includes collaborations with legends such as Herbie Hancock, M, Talking Heads, Grace Jones, Robert Palmer, and many others. It’s the story of a truly global musician—one who views music through an international lens. Inside MusiCast proudly welcomes Wally Badarou.

If there’s a single characteristic that best describes Bobby Colomby, it might be intuition. Since the beginning of his interest in music, Bobby’s intuition has paved the way for one of the most interesting paths in the music business. For starters he’s a self-taught musician, but his passion for music was the driving force to his success in a variety of industry roles. Not only was he the drummer for Blood Sweat & Tears, Bobby worked in various positions for major labels, as well as being an entertainment television reporter for Entertainment Tonight and CBS. He went on to collaborate with and producer some of the biggest names in the music industry, but recently he’s found his way back into the business by producing and developing a rising star in the world of jazz, Jesus Molina. This man has stories to tell, and we’re pleased to welcome Bobby Colomby to Inside MusiCast.
