Our guest for Episode 42 of The Music Chat Podcast is Angela Petrilli.  For anyone who is not already familiar with Angela, she is a highly knowledgeable and skilled guitarist.  As some of you may know, Angela recently experienced the loss of her friend and bandmate Jenny, who passed away earlier this year after a courageous battle with cancer.  So we had a lot to cover in this conversation.

 

During this episode you will hear Angela talk about:

 

• Working with a writing/composing partner to create music
• Tailoring instrumental parts to the nature of a song
• Being an authentic musician, and the importance of staying true to your vision
• Advice for aspiring musicians, including approaches to social media
• Being grateful to make music for a living
• Dealing with grief and moving past loss
