I’ve listened to every episode! And I just finished up the latest interview with Pensacola Mist. They were exactly who I thought they were. Super professional, polished, looking band, but very self-aware about who they are and what they’re doing. It was delightful and Marc asked some really good questions.
Mark is a great host! He’s very informative, he takes his time explaining his knowledge on mixing and mastering, and the music business. Keep up the great content.. Fasteddy856
Perfect podcast for musicians, artists, and producers. I learned so much on your lessons learned episode. Great recap and look forward to listening to more!
As a musician who’s always been interested in writing my own music, the episodes on writing songs were very enlightening! Marc walks through his entire songwriting process and you get not only an overview of how to tackle the process, but you also get inspired to go begin writing your own music! 🎶
