This is the Weird Music Podcast, where we explore the minds of the most creative and influential people involved in improvisational music. This episode features a band that's truly a staple of Ohio music — The Werks. Our first segment features drummer & entrepreneur, Rob Chafin, who runs The Werk Out Festival, The Summit Music Hall, Crunchwerks Restaurant, and manages the band Barefuzz. In this episode, Rob reflects on the history of The Werks, shares valuable music industry advice, opens up about how he evaluates bands, and he talks about how he curates The Werk Out's lineup. Part 2 of this episode features a conversation on music & life with The Werks beloved guitarist, Chris Houser. Enjoy!
