Gabriel Wolfchild is the lead singer and guitarist for the band Wolfchild. He began as a visual artist, but after experiencing the Rainbow Gathering, a huge gathering of people and artists in a national forest, he realized he needed to make music. Wolfchild describes the band’s genre as cinematic dream folk, and goes into more detail about what that entails. He is a big believer that music is medicine and it’s his job to share his music and stories, so that he can heal someone. Music to him is for the listeners, so they can connect with it. Gabriel talks about his struggles with finding a place to live and make music, and how life not being perfect makes for good music. He also discusses his experience on The Voice, finding a name for himself, and him and his brother experimenting with eclectic instruments and sounds.

Scott Langdon was in music school and he realized that he was surrounded by people who had never actually learned to play music or love music and so he “got the fuck out of that.” Now he’s living in Seattle playing drums in multiple bands and teaching music lessons. I showed up on Scott’s porch as he was stepping out of the shower. His home is full of music posters and instruments. All his roommates are musicians and the entire basement is a devoted music practice space. Their cat is named Thelonious Monk (after the pianist). Scott is determined to make music until the day he dies and I get it. Music kinda takes over your life and nothing else quite compares and a retirement plan seems unnecessary. Music is so powerful that despite the cost of isolation, never ending hard work, public vulnerability and all the levels of crazy, we still love the reward so deeply we cannot say no. We mold our lives around the music. Wander with me into Scott’s back garden for this conversation about the real meaning of life, the magic of the drums and the wisdom we find in psychedelics. All the Good Vibes ❤ CHA

Arthur James is known in Seattle for the value he places on community and collaboration with other artists in the music industry. His solo music explores the feelings and philosophy of the darkness that surrounds our existence and he’s a cofounder of he band Lyle where collaboration between many instruments and their players reigns supreme. Despite the fact he despises recording, performing, and even himself at times, he finds joy in songwriting and strongly believes in his responsibility to share his creations with people, communicating with them or for them through art. Excited and humbled by our surrounding environment, Arthur and I recorded this episode in the famous rooms of London Bridge Studio in Shoreline, WA. Thank you Arthur for sharing your experiences so openly with such a beautiful balance of light and dark. x Cha

“It’s not a Lindsay White show unless I’ve talked about dead people, gay people, and women.” Lindsay White is a singer-songwriter from San Diego. She grew up in a religious home and faced huge relationship challenges with her family after she discovered she was gay and divorced her husband. She’s lost many people in her life, including her mother who died of brain cancer. Lindsay is a voice of acceptance; using her music to heal through grief, empowering women to advocate for themselves, representing the gay community and encouraging everyone to cherish the limited time they have together. After years of working herself to the bone to build her music career, she is now prioritizing living in the present moment and making an impact without burning out. LIndsay started Lady Brain Collective, a group of female artists in San Diego who meet regularly and support each other through this crazy life as creative entrepreneurs. Lindsay and I recorded this conversation at the Beacon Hill Playground on a sunny spring morning while she was touring through Seattle.

This is a business. To make money as a musician, your artwork needs to captivate people so they’re compelled to listen and spend money, your business tactics need to be innovative, and you have to be willing to navigate insecurity, perfectionism and feedback.

Heather Thomas is a Seattle based drummer, singer, front woman, stone-cold hustler and sparkle wearer who has toured the country with multiple bands. We recorded her interview in her basement in West Seattle, surrounded by musical instruments. We talked about the exciting of playing in a new city every day and the best way to handle tour buses breaking down, the importance of being a woman in the music playing drums, a powerful instrument that many girls shy away from or are dis-encouraged from touching, and her dream of playing drums on the moon one day. Heather understands her role in this world as a woman paving the road for other women to find their voice and power and she’s leading by example through her music and championing the drums as an instrument of power for self-expression and confidence. I inspired by her possibility-geared mindset and determination to practice and improve. After meeting with Heather, I purchased a drumstick and practice pad. ;) ❤ Cha

Elijah (a.k.a. Tobias the Owl) is originally from Morocco though he grew up in Canada and has lived in Seattle since 2015, working as a medical physicist, professor, and musician (his secret-identity that he dons when not reading MRIs). He writes songs inspired by physics and his journey as a leukemia survivor. A lot of the songs on his newest album are about The Black Hole Theory War which has us asking questions like “Are We Infinite Beings or Are We Infinitesimal?” Many of his songs are written in the dark tunnels of old underground Seattle under his apartment building.

I walked into Leah T’s house in West Seattle and fell in love. This girl hand-painted all her furniture teal, she’s hauled a beautiful old piano in the living room, there are plants and guitars hanging on the wall, beers chillin’ outside the front door, a view of the city through the window, and a throw pillow that said “Dwight, you ignorant slut.” — “So when do I move in?” was my first thought. ;P Leah T plays piano / keyboard professionally in multiple bands in Seattle. She also has her own music project, she has released multiple records, and back in Minnesota she studied Piano Performance at college. She’s woven her way deep into the Seattle music scene and she’s earning her living through full time music and very occasional dog walking. Leah was referred to me by our mutual friend, Katie Kuffel (yo girl! — Katie was on Episode #7: I Realized There’s a “Fuck It” Adjustment That Comes with Being a Musician) and Katie said that I had to talk to Leah about what it’s like to be a female backing musicians in so many bands, working with so many different musicians.

A computer engineer by day, Bug Hunter gained his confidence to perform music by playing Taylor Swift songs for drunk people in an alleyway outside of a bar at 11 pm; a place where he could suck and no one would notice. Through open mics, he quickly fell in love with the Seattle music scene community and now that his music is available online, his honest songs are connecting with people worldwide. For this episode, Bug invites us into his kitchen for a glass of water, we’re surrounded by towers of his CDs about to be shipped to his Kickstarter supporters and he tells us stories about his self-esteem as an awkward kid with a popular brother, his current techie by day and an artist by night lifestyle, and how he found the courage to step onto stage which has led him to living a life he’d never imagined.
