Musician Kirk Williams and I chat about the highs and lows that most creatives in today's world face, such as the balancing act between finding the time to write, to enjoying the freedom to experiment while working and living in Chico! It was great to hear from a born and raised Chico musician on how much things have changed in the best way for new artists to be able to join the scene and keep music in Chico thriving.

Definitely check out his solo project, Lish Bills, on Instagram @lishbills or online at lishbills.com, and don't miss his full-length album "All Love and No Heart" coming out on May 3: https://lishbills.bandcamp.com/album/all-love-and-no-heart
