Justin Rose is 1/3 of the Chicago folk band Families, and one of my best friends. We talk about his band, balancing married life, a full time job, and a full time band, and debut some exclusive live music performances.

Craig Allen is a musician with a passion for empowering and encouraging part time artists in their craft. We talk about his newly ended podcast called the Weekend Musician, his musical history, and just generally have a great time. Craig's is also the only podcast I've ever been on other than my own. So you know he's cool.

Andy Othling and I talk about crowdfunding today- if you're thinking of starting a Kickstarter or Indiegogo campaign, listen to the things we talk about here first! 

Dave Shay is on the show again and we get real crazy talking about Kanye and the value of music (subjects that should be familiar to you by now!)

Josh "Dies" Porter is the frontman of the band Showbread, an author of several novels, podcaster at You Hate Movies, and pastor of a church in Vancouver. We talk about the 18 year history of Showbread, crowdfunding, Cancer, and a whole mess of things. Previous to that, I also spout some truth about Spotify.

Josh Taylor is part of the Youtube sensation Blimey Cow, who have been making videos essentially since Youtube was a thing, and then in 2013 launched a Kickstarter to fund their new Blimey Cow Podcast, subsequently raising 10x their initial goal of $1,700 and ending up with just under $17,000. Josh and I talk about that campaign, staying loyal to your fan base, creative processes, and a ton more.

Dave Shay is back on the show with me and we talk about the responsibility that creators have to their fan bases, I talk about Freebooting, and a ton of other good stuff. I also tell you how to win a Lowercase Noises vinyl direct from me!

Tim is 1/2 of the band Foxhollow, 1/4 of the band Everett, and 1/1 of the band Tim Stickrod. We talk about his music, his marriage, and his motivation for doing art. It's not what you think. I also announce the unveiling of the new website, as well as a contest to win one of two Lowercase Noises vinyl records.

Alex Sugg is the man behind the music project Glowhouse. A composer, producer, and native to Albuquerque New Mexico, we talk about old bands and scenes and artist communities and all kinds of good stuff.
