Episode 40 – How an Iconic Guitar is Built Aug 07, 2018

On this penultimate episode of the second season of The Music is Win Podcast, I had the pleasure to take a private tour with the master luthier of Gibson USA while I was at in Nashville, Tennessee for Summer NAMM this past summer. Come along on a tour of one of the most impressive factories in the world as we go through the lifespan of an iconic guitar, from a piece of wood to the finished product.

Jen's outgoing personality blended with her obvious passion for music is on display as we discuss life on the road, performing in the famous Sydney Opera House, what guitar tone is really all about, and so much more. Jen was one of my favorite people I got to meet at TGU this past summer, and you'll definitely want to check out her most recent solo effort called InZENity. Enjoy!

Episode 38 – The King of the Blues, Boscoe France Jul 24, 2018

On this week's episode of The Music is Win Podcast, I had the pleasure to sit down with blues royalty, Boscoe France, at the Experience PRS event this summer. Boscoe is not only an extremely humble guy and extraordinary guitar player (I've found that combination a lot during my travels), he's also a master storyteller. From tales of twice-bought guitars to the reason he always plays live shows in bare feet, you'll love this awesome and authentic bluesman who's as kind as he is good at ripping the ax.

Episode 37 – Glenn Fricker is Metal as #&%! Jul 17, 2018

Glenn Fricker calls 'em like he sees 'em, which is exactly the quality you look for in a good music producer.

We also chat about studio war stories, the worst thing about music today, and much, much more.

Make sure to check out Glenn's YouTube channel and sign up for his new course on producing killer progressive metal tracks.

Episode 32 – Adam Neely, the Smartest Musician on Earth Apr 16, 2018

To say Adam Neely is smart is actually an understatement. Tackling subjects from Infrasound to Synesthesia to Negative Harmony, and everything in between (and... beyond), Adam sees his YouTubecareer as a justification for research that most wouldn't ever do. In our wide-ranging conversation, we discuss the pros and cons of attending a school like Berklee College of Music, of which we are both alums, find the balance between practicing and being creative, and decide what music theory really means to musicians in the real world, along with so much more. Adam is an awesome friend and multi-talented composer, bassist, and musician. I hope you enjoy this podcast as much as I did.

Episode 31 – Phil McKnight, Sharpener of Axes Mar 30, 2018

In this episode of The Music is Win Podcast, I chat with the all-knowing gear guru Phillip McKnight. Now that my early April Fools joke has made its rounds, I can assume you've heard my treasured PRS SC245, "Baby", is safely back in my possession. It was part of Phil's latest episode of "Sharpen My Axe", a series where Phil takes a guitar from one of his lucky subscribers and tricks it out. I didn't want to take up one of these coveted positions in place of a loyal fan, so I offered to pay to have my guitar worked on, but PRS Guitars ended up sponsoring the video (thanks, Jeanne!) and Phil recommended I donate to my favorite charity instead of paying him for his effort, so I donated to an awesome organization called Guitars for Vets.
