This was a super-fun interview with 2 people at the top of their game in music.

Mindi Abair has performed with Aerosmith, the Boneshakers and was the saxophonist on American Idol a few years ago.

You can read more of her Bio on her site below.

Theo Wanne has been studying and designing mouthpieces for many years, and some of the world’s greatest saxophonists play his mouthpieces.

When I was walking the floors of the NAMM Show, I caught part of Mindi Abair’s performance of her new single, Forever, at the Theo Wanne mouthpiece booth.

Theo designed not 1, but 2 mouthpieces for her.
