  • Ep. 7 | Amanda Shea | Word

    After a long hiatus the Alternate Fields podcast returns with an episode that was recorded in April 2021 with Boston based artist/poet Amanda Shea 

    (@amandasheaallday).  We have a conversation sharing stories and perspectives that revolve around the power of words and expressing authentically and vulnerably.  Amanda is a leader in the Boston arts community and is simply inspiring to converse with.  Her passion for writing and poetry is infectious and I am lucky to be in network with her.   We go deep in our freestyle flow reminding ourselves the importance of fearless expression and raw creativity.  Join us as we expand our minds and deepen our perspectives amidst the alternate fields...

  • Ep. 6 | Braden L Palmer | Into The Wild

    In episode 6 of the 'Alternate Fields' podcast' I catch up with my good friend Braden L Palmer (IG: @stuckhog_studios ).  Braden is one of those rare breeds that represents a genuine, authentic and wild nature that radiates through his art and music.  Growing up in a musical family in northern Minnesota, the dude has music in his blood.  Amassing well over 10+ albums of original music in his still young career, the guy is a self-made full spectrum singer-songwriter/producer and artist.  His latest project release from his independent label 'Stuckhog Studios' ( stuckhogstudios.com ) is 'No Signal' - a body of work that speaks to the artistry of the man. 100% original.  The project is worthy of multiple listens to really soak in the depth and nuance of a meticulously designed musical expression that speaks to the his maturity with the craft.  Constantly pushing the boundaries and being true to the muse, Braden is an artist you need to know, but you may need some extra time to catch up with him and his catalog of diverse genre fluid music that has a little something for everyone.  If your a real music fan, this is your guy.  Join us as we expand our minds and deepen our perspectives amidst the alternate fields...
