100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

One of my favorite discussions is on this episode with Brittany Drake from Pity Sex where we speak about psychology, being a female in independent music and being positive. It's a very enlightening chat and showcases how you can have interests outside of the art that you create.

I am very pleased to bring you this very charming conversation that Matt Carter, the guitarist of Emery, and I had one afternoon. I will be the first to admit, I didn't follow the band that much in the past couple of years but was pleased to know they were still doing their thing and staying true to the convictions that they held when they formed the band. We discuss how NOT to start a band, being late to the game and how terrible Christian music is in general.

I was very happy when the opportunity presented itself to speak to Matt Halpern as I have been a fan of his band and recognized the impact they've has had on the independent metal music scene (in which he is the drummer). A deep chat that focuses on being creative, the purpose of life and slowing down when needed.

In an extremely special show, I speak with Jordan Dreyer the vocalist for La Dispute. We openly discuss acting, the process of being creative and unintentional beginnings. For a man with very little social media presence, he was very candid and open in our talk.

While his band was recording in Southern California, I was afforded an opportunity to speak to Tommy Green who is the vocalist for a metal/hardcore band called Sleeping Giant.

I jumped at the opportunity to speak with Andrew Wade who is one of the most sought after producers within independent music due to his work with extremely popular bands like A Day To Remember and The Ghost Inside. I speak to him about his upbringing in Florida, the Christian music scene and how much he hates invoices.

I am proud to bring you this episode because it's a perfect example of how I want this podcast to function. Michael was a listener of the show, emailed me and we started a dialog. I come to find out he plays in Seahaven and then I immediately invite him to be on the show. We discuss having focus, dealing with anxiety and being creative. It was a very "musical" chat since Seahaven doesn't particularly do a lot of press so it's an honor to have him on.

I met up with Matt Pryor one evening at a show he performed here in Southern California so please forgive the background noise that you hear.
