Chris Koza is a successful singer-songwriter based in Minneapolis and Denver. Koza discusses his solo career as well as collaborations with his band Rogue Valley and shares his experience of working with notable artists, including Brandi Carlile, Gordon Lightfoot, and Stephen Kellogg. With music regularly featured on popular shows like ABC's General Hospital, 60 Minutes, and Good Morning America, Koza talks about his process of creating music, collaborations, and achieving longevity in the music industry.

We cover topics such as staying present during big opportunities, accepting and honoring fan support, the importance of taking breaks, and a whole lot more. Koza’s 20-year+ journey as a working, independent artist is inspiring, and I hope you find some great bits of advice. Enjoy!
