Welcome to Season 3 of the Coach Music Podcast. 2020 was a transformational year for so many people around the world facing so much change and new challenges it was a time for us to look inward. Music is such a beautiful way to seek refuge and listening to East Forest was a big part of that for Angus and I - and we thought it was fitting to begin 2021 with this conversation.

East Forest’s music is a bridge between the digital and natural realms. He offers a spiritual yet non-religious pathway through music, his podcast, writing, talks, and retreats.

We spoke about how he found his true calling through music. Why he remains independant and turned down a record deal. Plus his spectacular collaboration with spiritual teacher, Ram Dass.

As a musician I truly believe this episode can provide you inspiration to follow your truth and create from your heart.

In search of adventure, the three traveled around the country busking, before eventually settling in Melbourne. Now signed to Nettwerk Records, the trio has been recording new music over nine months in a variety of locations – from Bowen’s garage to Homesurgery Recordings in Melbourne – and working with producers Hayden Calnin (Didirri, Harrison Storm, and a solo artist in his own right) and Jackson Barclay (Vera Blue, Winterbourne, Timberwolf). Their new music – a dynamic mix of organic, acoustic elements and electronic flourishes – is a breathtakingly candid collection of songs about heartbreak, trauma and hope. In this episode they shared how it all began, the lessons they have learnt along the way, the CRAZY success stories and the beautiful adventure they have been on together. They really opened up and touched on some of the reasons they have needed to take a break and come back bigger and stronger than ever. This is a super valuable conversation for anyone looking to build their career organically or just feel inspired to pursue music. Check them out on insta @woodlockmusic
