Former podcast guest Donovan Stokes recommended that I contact Zach Rowden and dig into what his musical journey looks like.

I did just that, and the result was a fascinating conversation about careers, traditional music school mindsets, and how wide the possibilities really when you decide to do your own thing.

Zach is a former student of both Donovan Stokes and Robert Black, and we discuss the impact that both these teachers had on the Zach's musical evolution.
