A self-described 'Creative Swiss Army Knife', Erin Barra is a wealth of knowledge, experience and opinion. She is an assistant professor at Berklee School of Music, a dedicated artist and producer, and an industry consultant for everything musical. Here demo reel is amazing - but so are some of her accomplishments, including the development of the Beats By Girlz (https://www.beatsbygirlz.com/) project.

But it is Erin's willingness to share her ideas and opinions that makes her a great conversationalist. In our chat, we talk about her background, appreciation of audiophilia, view of song-writing in all of its appearances and perspectives on education.

This was an inspiring chat - I felt like it was an education in itself. I hope that you enjoy the discussion, and take the opportunity to check out her site (http://erin-barra.squarespace.com/).

Enjoy!
