Welcome to "Meet Your Maker" a special podcast where Sebastian Vera sits down with craftsman to learn about the magic behind their discoveries and nerd out about equipment.

For this premiere episode, Sebastian sits down with the quietly brilliant Christan Griego of Edwards Instruments, Griego Mouthpieces and Sota Turntables where they talk about the evolution of the trombone sound, what is being discovered now, and what are the most important things you should be focusing on in your instrument choice and life in general. This was an amazing talk and I can't wait for you all to hear it!
