EP: 027 – Sparking your creative evolution, creating meaning with your music, and the importance of “why” with Dead Cures

This week we have Dead Cures in the studio with us! Dead Cures is a brand new indie rock band based out of Nashville, which evolved out of the long-running Nashville indie rock band Kink Ador.

Host Jon Stinson chats with the band to talk about their “why,” the personal evolution of each band member, how they each got started in music, where the band name Dead Cures came from, and what message they are creating and empowering people with through their music.

And of course the band jams us out to some great live performances as well!

Before the mics came on we dealt with quite a bit of technical difficulties. The band waited patiently as we got that worked out, and made the show happen despite all the resistance. Only then to deal with an audio dropout right around the 12 minute mark. Ugh!

But we pressed on, channeled our inner Steven Pressfield [The War of Art], and ended up with an amazing show…

Connect with the band! Dead Cures is planning to put out some exclusive content on their YouTube channel. And they need 100 subscribers to grab their vanity URL on YouTube. So let’s see how quickly we can make that happen!
