I traveled down to San Diego for a day to meet up with Rob Moran, the bassist from influential hardcore band Unbroken as well as his current project, Narrows. Rob is an old friend and it was great being able to walk him through his early touring experiences, viewing time as a resource and being a minority in independent music. Please donate to the show!

I had an extremely pleasant chat with Brianna Collins from the band Tigers Jaw one afternoon about many things including her life outside of the band being a teacher, how she deals with having unwanted attention and her desire for being a full time band. Donate to the show Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

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.

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.
