On episode 189, we're joined by one of our first guests that we ever had back in 2019, SJ McDonald! SJ has been a day 1 going back to the In The Round days! SJ and I discuss our friendship over the years, her journey as an artist and songwriter in town and her recent publishing deal with Major Bob Music! We also talk about our respective time in the 'trenches' down on Lower Broadway working in the bars, SJ playing regular cover gigs to pay the bills while I worked security and how the scene has changed down there overtime! SJ reflects on her growth as a writer, the evolution she has exprienced and the importance of surrounding yourself with good people to get to your own unique sound. We also share funny stories and memories from years of friendship!
