Episode 198 - Evan Baxter-Carr
Dwelling in Scotland with a love and passion for both music and writing, Evan Baxter-Carr is the brain behind one of our favorite music blogs on the web today called “Doombox Music”. We had the chance to have our first in depth interview with Evan this week to discuss the site and where the idea originated from. As a fan of artists ranging from David Bowie to MF Doom he talks about how the wide array of styles he intakes helped to influence the place that Doombox has become. He talks about his approach to having music sent his way and what goes into his album reviews and write ups for the blog itself while also running his own radio show to give his thoughts on certain projects from an array of independent artists. Evan also has plans to finish writing and publishing his own book in the future as well as continuing to pursue other ways to keep music involved in his daily life. We love what he’s doing for the community and definitely encourage everyone to checkout doomboxmusic.com after this one to discover some amazing and talented individuals he’s shedding light on!

Returning for the first time since 2020 we welcomed back Atlanta’s own Rome Westfield this week!

This week we got to catch up about some of the different twists and turns he’s taken all while maintaining his mission for continued growth. He touched on being able to shift his sound to a new lane and keep reinventing his music as opposed to always sticking with the same style over and over. He’ll be putting this on full display in the coming months with new songs and visuals in the works all of which he’s excited to share. It’s a great thing to see Rome still on the grind each and every day and we’re happy to still be able to reach him to give his insight for all of you!

Episode 196 - Awks Cord
This week we welcomed in the multi talented Awks Cord who is an artist, producer and DJ from the west coast. She joined us to touch on where her love for the craft began! With a background in band early on she took up for instrumentation which led her to the world of creating through music production. She discussed how this has helped her within the curation process as a DJ but also as a solo artist herself. Most recently she released her latest effort “Wanna Smoke” as her first full offering of 2024 as she continues to craft more new music behind the scenes. If anything is present throughout this episode it’s her love and enthusiasm for music and specifically for the grind and payoff that comes from being an independent artist as someone who’s been at it for some years now. We wish her all the best and encourage you to get in tune with the wavy vibes she has and will be releasing again real soon!

This week we’re joined by artist, producer, instrumentalist and fellow podcaster Jailan Williams from the great state of South Carolina! We got in touch with Jailan through his show the JusMusic Podcast which he co-hosts with his friend Marco and which serves as an awesome platform for local and worldwide talent to tell their stories.

As one of the most consistent artists we know we’re always happy to get some of his expertise and perspective and this week he had a lot more to give! The primary point of discussion was on his newly released album “Rise of Corleone” that has been released since the time of our conversation.

Episode 182 - Michael Averill
Canadian artist, podcaster and coach Michael Averill joins us on episode 182 to kick off the month of December! Michael is a close friend of the show and it was a blast being able to take a deep dive into what makes him such a great advocate for musicians in many different ways. He first gave insight into what made him pursue being an artist in the first place having musical roots within his family and a love for the guitar that led him down a path he never expected as a solo touring musician. From there Michael has started his own podcast for songwriters and become a one on one coach in the acclaimed program Produce Like a Boss helping music makers learn how to generate income from their home studio. It’s Michael’s ability to help others and wanting to see them shine that gives him his super powers and we feel he’s one of the best doing that currently in the landscape. We thank him again for all he’s done and continues to do as well as taking the time to join us this week!

Atlanta based artist LoLo stops by the show this week to give our listeners a new perspective on the importance of the modern day release strategy! Having dropped his latest work the album titled “Taurus” earlier this year he talks about how he’s continued to push and promote the project through different visuals, remixes and other content pieces months later as opposed to moving on to another release immediately.

Episode 163 - Wunder
When our friend Jakub from The Sunday Night Army Podcast referred us to a stellar artist and instrumentalist named Wunder we were totally on board to have him join us for an episode! We had the chance to dive into the hardships he’s faced over his 10 plus years being active and how he’s chose to stay on the path of creativity learning to not only write and produce but also engineer his own material from start to finish. This journey of artistic independence led to his early 2023 single “Rebound” which he states is the first of many more tracks on the horizon in his back catalog. With that in mind he also describes how important keeping a release schedule has been to seeing success and how it’s given him more time to put his all into each new idea to give to the world. We really appreciate Wunder for showing a level of vulnerability within his story and for the hard work he’s been putting in to choose a life with greater meaning and allowing him to give back in ways he never imagined possible!

He talked about having the ability to understand these different aspects of the industry and how each one has allowed him to learn something new while making great connections in the process. In the midst of these ventures he still has managed to keep his health and well being at the forefront while taking breaks to live life and fuel his creative tank for more outstanding ideas to be put into the world. His shared passion for the arts and giving back is always at the forefront and we feel it’s what makes him a true standout! We thank YBG for sharing the many sides of his love for music with us and we’re excited for what’s to come from the west coast taste maker!

The Inland Empire region of California has been a quiet storm of brewing musical talent for many years. Looking to add to the roster is Menifee native Duhon who was able to join us this week on the podcast! We recapped his last project the 2022 release “Sorry Summer” and how it pushed his creativity from story telling to the conceptual design of the artwork which was brought to life by one of his close friends. It’s this same next level thinking that he’s aiming to take into the next chapter of his career with new music and other new branding and marketing techniques to reach a wider audience. He also gave us some of his favorite daily activities that help to ease his mind and refuel his creative spirit to continue and push forward.

Episode 155 - Mike Good
Drawing from big inspirations like Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole and Drake in the early 2010’s is what set Atlanta artist Mike Good out on his own path towards a music career. However it wasn’t until around 2017 when he really began to dial things in and take it seriously enough to begin seeing real results. He joined us on episode 155 this week to discuss it all more in depth! As he crafts a new soon to be released EP he describes the process and time it’s taken to create a project he feels good about and worthy enough to give his fans. Infused in these works will be a newfound attention to detail and love for the craft as he has began to find his sound in new ways each and every day. Mike also told a cool story about his love for aviation and what he does as an engineer that serves as yet another passion in the same way music is for him. We thank Mike for joining us this week and always encourage everyone to keep the joy involved in all aspects of your life the same way he has!

Episode 151 - vØHn Pt. 2
Returning after his first interview with us in 2020 is producer and artist from the Dallas area vØHn! In the first episode we had discussed his past production work with major label artists and his viewpoint as the son of legendary producer S1 while having just moved back to Dallas to pursue an artist career. On part 2 we caught up with him about the shift in his path that seems to be a necessary move towards continuing his creative pursuits. He talks about trying his hand at acting and the outlet and ideas that it has since helped spark. Fresh off his 2022 album “Phases II: The Idles” vØHn discusses the importance of learning to work with the right collaborators as opposed to just anyone who’d want to make a song with him as the energy and chemistry is really the makeup to any great form of art. The biggest focus here is his mission towards inner peace and a newfound understanding of the ups and downs of life and his overall goals as a creative. Despite past success he’s not letting himself become satisfied or comfortable with where he’s been but yet always focused on where he’s headed next. Thanks again to him for catching up with us!
