009 Payge Turner (Featured on NBC's The Voice - Singer, Performer, Musician)

This interview took place in 2019 in Seattle before Payge made her way on NBC’s The Voice.  Hopefully, we will be doing a follow-up interview soon to talk about her journey on The Voice.

In this interview, she breaks down her decision to relocate to Seattle and gives advice to other artists on how to take their next steps.  She also shares her journey of breaking out of the confines of Christian music and exploring who she is as a musician.  Please forgive the interruptions from the animals and the fact that we were a bit sloshy after the pre-interview wine.   Enjoy.
