Music! It drives us to hit the dance floor and creates the landscape of our memorable moments in life. Seeing that music is so influential it is the perfect opportunity to inquire about the people who make the music we listen to. How are musicians faring after taking a year off from performing publicly? What about the venues where we gather to rock with our favorite bands or DJ’s?
Those that were able to stay afloat during the pandemic are gearing up to have the events that we’ve all missed so dearly. In episode 36 we talk to some of the people responsible for the music we listen to.
