Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea has launched a new podcast focussing on music education and the creative process. Titled This Little Light, the 15-part series explores the influences and teachers that inspired some of Flea’s own musical heroes. The first announced guests include Rick Rubin, Patti Smith, Thundercat, Stewart Copeland, Margo Price, and Cynthia Erivo.

“I wanted to do This Little Light to benefit my music school, the Silverlake Conservatory of Music,” Flea said in a statement. “The idea behind it being music education, falling in love with music and embarking on a musical journey for your life. Everybody’s path is so different, and it’s fascinating to learn how every musician came to music and developed their study of it over time.”
