You’ve probably heard of, or even seen, Disney’s movie Soul. It's about a jazz musician, stuck in a mediocre job, who finally gets his big break. What you might not know, is the movie’s animated lead Joe is partially based on real-life jazz musician John Batiste. He’s just won a Golden Globe, and is nominated for an Oscar for his work on the screenplay. But that’s not the only thing he’s got on his plate. He’s also the bandleader and musical director at the Late Show with Stephen Colbert with his band Stay Human, and has a new album out: We Are. He's been speaking with Jack Tame. LISTEN TO AUDIO ABOVE
