I give my thoughts and experiences about graduate school and working as a professional musician during a master's!
This is an episode I’ve been super excited about for as long as I’ve done this podcast! Rebekah is a close friend of mine who has her own music therapy business. She and I have had many conversations about life and music and parenthood and therapy and everything in between. I truly believe in her and in music therapy. Few people impress me with their dedication to their art and craft, but Rebekah has always been undeniable to me.

Robert and I discuss theatre, the state of the arts in schools and communities, and our newest endeavour, the Woodlands Chamber Music Project
It is with great pleasure that I announce my newest business affiliation! Liberty Drums, over in the UK have offered to have me in their artist family! I’ll be helping the. Expand here in the States. My friend Andrew with liberty made me a custom four-piece kit. It’s infinitely small, but sounds absolutely wonderful!
This summer, I have privilege to share my expertise with several schools over in Chesterfield County, Virginia. I'll be working with Clover Hill High School and LC Bird High School.
John hangs with the four other members of the Houston-based band Zero Detail. This episode does contain some colourful language and some odd cat noises... Be aware!
John and Marissa sit outside and discuss things such as theatre, training, some good shows, and of course (and obviously) joy nuggets! They're huge comedy fans, so you hear a bit of that in the conversation, but she has some nice insight about how it is working with musicians and being around music, but not being a 'professional musician' (what does that mean, anyway?). It was a good time in a lovely, albeit sneezy place in Houston.
John talks with Joe about viola, having a side hustle and how to properly react to exquisite harmony!
John has a chat with some great guys! The Karl brothers (Sans Drew from episode 2) and Ben Miller talk about gigging, music, being in a band, and silly organ sounds!
John and Stephenie talk about suicide, mental health, and the show 13 Reasons Why. Be aware the a clear opinion is shared!

There's so many wonderful people who have dedicated their lives to helping others through times like some you may be experiencing. We're here for you. We love you. We are here to help you when you need it. If this helps you, or might help someone you know, please share it.
