Don't You Recognize Me?

On this episode, I was fortunate enough to speak with the extremely talented Jackie Mendez. Jackie has done so much and all of her hard work definitely shows. (this episode was previously recorded on Instagram Live) 

I got to speak with my really good friend and band member Jeff Torres from 11:11 band, Nuclear Winter, and Melee. He discusses how his cousins made him who he is and how he got into recording. 

I spoke with Oliver from Traitor Joe and multiple other groups and he gave some really great advise that I am sure all drummers have been waiting to hear for a long time. 

I spoke with Kat Chaos and Liz Hazy from the Podcast Scary Encounters with Hazy Chaos. We got to speak about their experiences in music and event planing and what its like being women in the industry. They had such good stories and advice for people starting off and what it takes to keep going. (this episode was previously recorded on Instagram Live)

This interview was a lot of fun. I got to speak to James Barrios (Uncle James) from Los Fabulocos. We got into a good discussion about what it takes to make it and to fake it until you make it. Also, many good stories from the road. (this episode was previously recorded on Instagram Live). 

I had the pleasure of having my good friend Abraham Velasco from Sandbox Bullies and more. We discuss bands that inspired him to play trombone and ditching work to get drunk. (This interview was originally recorded on Instagram Live)

John speaks with Matt Renteria from Teething! He discusses his time playing in bands and what influenced him to become a singer. Also, how singers get treated in bands. 

I speak with Erik Renteria (Teething, Eros) about his experiences playing in bands and how he still remembers advice given to him when he started out. (Episode was originally recorded on Instagram Live)
