Highly recommend for anyone both in and out...Read full review »

Wow did I ever need this podcast! The joy of listening and playing music made me want to pursue it as a profession. Somewhere along that pursuit, I lost the joy- but I’m gradually finding it again, and this podcast is a wonderful help. Almost every episode makes me cry. Thank you, Tanner!

I loved this podcast! This was excellent timing in my life to hear. I love the connection to meditation and art. “Whenever you are fully engaged in art, that is mindfulness.” Words to live by. ♥️

As a musician this podcast is exactly what I needed to hear. It’s so easy to get over consumed by all the pitfalls of this industry, so it’s great to have someone talk about how to stay sane through it all and maintain a love for your craft.
