Question 47 // Can I learn to trust the unknown? (feat. Mark Heimermann)

Mark Heimermann is one of the most brilliant song-writers, producers and mentors that I’ve had the honor of getting to work with. Producing, writing and touring with artists like Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, Jaci Velazquez and DC Talk, Mark seems to ,seemingly single-handedly, be responsible for creating the soundtrack of my earlier years while growing up in a home that only allowed listening to 'christian’ music.   Why would someone at the height of their career and success decide to completely change directions and move away from Nashville? Why does Mark feel like being a ‘Jack-of-all-trades’ in music is beneficial? And, above all else, I’ve struggled so hard to find certainty in life and ‘figure’ this whole music thing out. The unknown future in the creative journey can be daunting and intimidating. What can Mark teach me about learning to trust the unknown? This week, Mark welcomes me into his home studio to down over Oktoberfest beers to answer these questions and more.   Recording Location: Mark’s Home Studio, (haha like hell I’m going to post his home on the map. But… It’s somewhere in MN south of the metro)        ------------------------------   GUEST LINKS: Visit Mark Online: http://www.markheimermann.com/ Mark’s Discography: http://www.markheimermann.com/discography.html Contact Mark: http://www.markheimermann.com/contact.html   ------------------------------   Call The Official Podcast Hotline: (612) 584-9330  Visit Recording Locations: www.thecuriouspod.com/map Subscribe on iTunes: www.thecuriouspod.com/itunes Subscribe via RSS: www.thecuriouspod.com/rss Like us on Facebook: www.thecuriouspod.com/facebook Follow us on Instagram: www.thecuriouspod.com/instagram   ------------------------------   We’re so glad we don’t have to deal with sponsors or else we would feel compelled to tell you that Guinness is THE GREATEST beer ever made and "Clearly Made Of More.”  www.thecuriouspod.com/guinness   We'd also feel like we should tell you about our incredibly talented friends at Narrate Films who took all the press photos for the podcast.
