I had the privilege of interviewing Brad Jackson (founder of Jackson Ampworks and Jackson Audio).

In Part 1, Brad talks about his journey founding the two companies, his love of amps and pedals, new pedals for Jackson Audio, and we bond over our love for certain 80’s movies.

Whether you use stage monitors or in-ears, dialing in the right mix is crucial to how you worship. A good monitor mix makes it effortless to just worship and lead others in worship. A horrible mix can take your focus off of Jesus. In this episode I go over my methods to getting a great monitor mix every time. (This episode features audio clips from Oahu School of Worship for demonstration purposes, and is best experienced with headphones/earphones)

I sit down with my friend, Tiffa Garza (pastor at Christ Centered Community Church) to talk about some of the differences between musical performance and worship. We also chat about her life, the legacy of her parents, and juggling her roles as a pastor, worship leader, wife, and mother.

I chat with one of my dear friends and Tone Bros, Andrew; who plays guitar and leads worship at Reunion Church in Hawaii. We talk about gear, the journey of growing as musicians, and prophetically playing on your instrument, among other things.

We also mention the upcoming Oahu School of Worship Online. Check out the link for more info and to register for this life-changing 4-week online worship school!

I talk with one of my Tone Bros, Jordan Gross, about all the other things you need as a guitar player besides a guitar, amp, and pedals.

Let’s look at the differences between playing acoustic and playing electric, their individual roles, and why you should never play the electric guitar like an acoustic guitar.

I interview my dear friend, Rachel Morley, a highly anointed worship leader and musician (and media/visual arts/teacher/all around fun person).
