    Michael Lazar TALKS ‘Daydreaming’ + Performing Alongside a Future Avenger | JTWJE Podcast Ep. 374
    Jun 30 2025
    It is a privilege to welcome singer-songwriter Michael Lazar to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.

    Michael is a Miami-based singer-songwriter whose music blends pop, theater, and poetry into something deeply personal. His critically acclaimed debut album, 51/49, chronicled an 18-year journey through grief, reinvention, and healing – an autobiographical song cycle born from Michael’s move to New York City to study musical theatre at NYU, his countless Broadway auditions, and even a devastating apartment fire. His latest extended play, Daydreaming, is scheduled for release on July 25, 2025. The title track combines wistful piano melodies with atmospheric synths while capturing the emotional pull of imagined love.

    The full EP expands on the themes introduced in the single, offering a cohesive six-song journey through longing, hope, and personal transformation. From the golden-hour shimmer of “Magic Hour” to the pulsing ache of “Want Me Back,” Lazar crafts a pastel-toned sonic world grounded in vulnerability. The EP also features a reimagined version of “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” a tender reflection in “By My Side,” and concludes with “Life of the Butterfly,” a poetic meditation on growth and letting go.

    All six tracks were written, performed, and produced by Lazar. The EP was mastered by Michael Banks of UEFO, whose previous work on Lazar’s 2021 debut album, 51/49, helped establish the warmth and emotional clarity that have become hallmarks of his sound.

    On this episode of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Michael Lazar spoke about Daydreaming’s recording process, performing alongside future Avengers actor Chris Evans and Scott Evans, during his childhood. He also explained why he declares Britney Spears, Jewel, and Tori Amos make up his trifecta of inspiration.

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year! America’s Got Talent (AGT) is back for its 20th anniversary season! Veteran judge Mel B returned to the main show for the first time in seven years, joining Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, and Sofia Vergara at the Judges’ Desk.

    In the fifth episode of Jake’s AGT Take, I revealed my six standouts of the week – Duo Stardust (Sofia Vergara’s first Golden Buzzer act of Season 20), The Bodyguards, Bill Taylor & The Appalachian Heathens, Tom Sandoval and the Most Extras, Chuck Adams, and the Benn Family Band.

    Additionally, I give kudos to Andrea, who broke a notable world record.
