Jeremy talks to American Idol star and solo performer Alejandro Aranda, AKA Scarypoolparty.

During this episode they discuss how Alejandro first got into music by listening to his uncle play covers of the Beatles, and how he became totally obsessed with guitar to the point where he was practicing up to nine hours a day. The pair also talk about the differences between playing festivals compared to gigs, why it feels different performing for a live audience vs TV cameras, Alejandro's experiences competing on American Idol, moving to LA (and dealing with the terrible parking situation), how vocalists can avoid blowing their voices out, and more.
