Elizabeth here: I've known my friend Rob Shinno for almost 20 years, but I had no idea until recently that he's a professional musician, and his band Hemisphere has just released a brand new album, American Dreams. So I sat down with him on October 1st (the album's release date) so we could talk all about it: his fifteen-year break from recording, why he came back, who he's working with, and what the songs mean to him.

Quick correction: Rob mentions elite drummer Samantha Santana, he let me know her name is actually Cindy.

The intro and outro music is a clip from Hemisphere's song America, the reprise version.

UPDATE: Unfortunately the October 17th outdoor show was canceled due to COVID-19, but for updates, links to purchase the albums, and more, head to the Hemisphere band website.
