Jesse Honig is obsessive - and I mean this in the most amazing way possible. He has a singular focus for audio integrity and authenticity. He's worked in some incredible studios, on the road for some incredible artists, and that's because he knows audio. This obsession with tone has lead him to create 29 Pedals, a branch of his bigger audio enterprise - Believable Audio.

Jesse introduced the EUNA and the OAMP to the pedal community - an auspicious start to have a pedal company with your first pedals being an input and an output buffer! He's made a name for himself in the quality of his pedals and artists are taking notice with more and more of his buffers showing up on pedalboards of some of the best players in the world.

I really enjoyed this conversation - Jesse is the best kind of podcast guest. He's gregarious and full of wonderful stories to tell. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it!

Jordan Withers is a wizard. No seriously - he's a wizard. With his background in electronics, audio engineering, and his love of all those noise rock, he (and his colleagues) have built Poison Noises from the ashes of the dumpster fire that has been the COVID-19 Pandemic.

I had a blast getting to know Jordan and talking about guitar pedals, movies, and all sorts of other weirdness - I think you'll enjoy it too!

Hotone Audio has been on the scene for around ten years and has brought some exciting products like their line of Nano Legacy 5 watt amplifiers and their mini Skyline effects pedals. Lately they have jumped into the digital world offering amp sims, effects, IR loaders, and has even partnered with Celestion in their Ampero series of modeling.

Ari Garcia is an Argentinian guitarist now living in China (though he has traveled internationally) working as Marketing Manager for Hotone Audio. Our conversation went traveled down the path of talking about Hotone Audio products, talking about the challenges we all face as musicians, and building community as guitarists working together.

I really enjoyed the conversation with Ari and I think you're going to enjoy hearing about Hotone and hearing Ari's perspectives on music and the industry.

Silas Caldwell is a guitarist/singer/songwriter and the co-owner of  burgeoning new guitar store in the guitar city, Nashville, TN ... and he's 15 years old.

In this episode I talk to Silas about his adventures in starting a virtual music store during the pandemic, transitioning to a brick and mortar store, and the world of Nashville guitar selling. We also find time to talk about Silas' musical ventures, his musical influences, some of his favorite gear, and how he has to be careful not to partake of his own stock - because something has to sell to keep the store open!

I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I did!

This week I wanted reshare this episode from season one of the podcast with recent Grammy award winner Christone "Kingfish" Ingram. Kingfish and I are both from Clarksdale and grew up playing guitar around the same blues men and where I just ended up talking about guitar, Christone ended up making a living out of it and he's tearing it up on the road.

I really hope y'all enjoy this podcast from the early days of phone call interviews (forgive the audio!) and I'll see y'all with a new episode really soon!

Nick Diener has a super fun story! From signed artist in the band The Swellers, touring the world to running his own studio, Oneder Studios, to now making his own brand of effects pedals - he's done it all in the music industry. I loved this conversation with Nick about his experiences finding his own confidence to start trying new things and how that led to building effects pedals and a new burgeoning company.
