If you run the social media accounts for your band or if you care deeply about improving your brand and online presence, this is the most important podcast episode you could listen to. I did a 3-month long experiment on whether quality is more important than quantity on Facebook. The results are intricate and important. Give this a listen to hear about the difference in results bet

Casey Klein, one of the hardest working musicians in the State, joins the podcast. We discuss the quality of amazing musicians in our area, how we can make the community and scene better, the difference of being a solo artist vs a member of a band, his new album that was just released, making people like music that they said they hated and so much more!

On this episode, I discuss two talking points that have been weighing on my brain. First, is now the time to start a cover charge revolution in Iowa? Second, I give a detailed social media application rundown and why you should be using all of them.

On this episode, I sit down with Cooper and Sam from Not Quite Brothers. Before our shows at Oktoberfest Adventureland, we talk the formation of their band, pros/cons of being a younger band, influences, what's next for the band and much more. Join us!

Two good friends of mine join the podcast to talk about their fundraiser to help raise money for the Cedar Rapids area. It's called New Roots Grow and is the true definition of "music saves." Our great music community is using their talents to help raise money. Enjoy this conversation about how it came about and the amazing artists involved.

On this episode, I get to have a great chat with TC VanHooreweghe, the manager for B2wins. They are an amazing band and one of the most popular acts in the State. He tells us about the amazing origin story of the band, as well as some talk about branding, advice on getting to the next level, advantages of having a manager and how they have dealt with 2020 in a positive way.

Mike and AJ discuss the weird limbo world we live in. Is it ok to play shows? What should we be doing to ensure that the music business doesn't die? Why can't we all just get along? Someone give us the answers!
