This week I sit down with Mark Turley of Summer School Electronics. We get into Marks musical beginning, playing in band, starting summer school, teaching, and so much more!

This week I am joined by Sarah Rudy of the band Hello June. I first found out about Sarah from Philip Carter of the 40 Watt Podcast and started listening the catalog of Hello June. Killer songwriting, riffs, and feel to all the music so I knew I had to get Sarah on the show and pick her brain about all things music and being an artist.
