Today on the show, I hang with the talented Dusty Bo. Dusty is a musician/songwriter from Louisville, KY who decided at 21 years old to move to Los Angeles, CA. After working the scene out there for 10 years, he moved back home to Louisville and he's been super busy since. He just released his new single "Bandit" on April 17, (which there was a bonus episode for) and it's a great tune. We of course talk all kinds of music stuff, but we also get into what makes Dusty tick, how he started singing and playing, life in L.A. and his return to Louisville.
You can find Dusty here...

I hope everyone is staying safe and maybe learning or doing some new stuff!
I have another cool hang on the show this week with Ian Bottomley. Ian is a drummer in Louisville, has been playing most of his life and is currently the drummer for the band Vice Tricks. We talk about all kinds of music stuff, growing up and finding out his dad was a drummer, the scene around town and how the two of us played in the same band. This was a fun for me episode because Ian and I have known each other for years, but we've never really knew each other. Now, I owe him a drink.

Today on the show, I hang with Denver Orrender. Denver is a sound guy in Louisville and he's been at it for a long time. He talks about how he got into running sound, what attracted him to that side of live music and his thoughts on the current situation in the world. Denver has a lot to say so there's a ton of information coming in this episode so strap in.

Today on the show, I have a conversation with Jeff House. Jeff is a Louisville native, a drummer and a funny dude. He's got a great sense of humor and he's putting that to use with his new podcast, Let's Tacobout This. We had a fun conversation about all kinds of music stuff, cymbals, bad auditions and more!

Today on the show, I have a conversation with Shaun Wallace, singer for the band Soul Circus out of Louisville. We talk about his late start to music, how it happened and where his band is now compared to the start. We also get into money and business topics which was a lot of fun.
There are some audio issues with this episode and I apologize, but it happens. Other than that, it was a lot of fun hanging via Skype with Shaun. He's a funny dude and we had a blast!

Finally a new episode! Today on the show, my buddy Steve Owens from the Fascination Street Podcast takes over my show and asks all kinds of questions about my tour last summer. He felt I did a terrible job and left a lot of unanswered questions so he grilled me. This was a fun episode and I am glad he held me accountable.
Enjoy!!

I’m back! It’s about time, right?? Today on the show, I get a couple things off my chest about what I call wealth envy. It’s annoying to hear people complain about other people that have more success or more money. Jealousy is an ugly thing.
I also bring back Social Media Issues and What Am I Listening To. Enjoy!!
