Lightning Bugs: Conversations with Ben Folds

Bishop Briggs - Becoming a Full-Time Musician and Seeing Past the Glamour of an Industry


Listen Later

Today’s guest is the musician Bishop Briggs. Her first single Wild Horses was released in 2015, and she's been cranking out music every year since then. Bishop has always been on the grind, starting out in coffee shops and small venues (which she refers to as “piss rooms,”) working hard to become the musician she is today. 

We dive into the realities of being a musician full-time and running it as a business. The reality of how grief can be inspiration for your work. And cutting pass the glamor of being a singer and realizing that the people you work with is one of the most important aspects of being creative.
