He will definitely have to come back and finish his incredible journey but for not sit back relax and be ready to be entertained.

Joe Dante Scafidi is a musician from Chicago, Illinois. Joe is honestly the nicest guy ive ever met in my whole life. Joe's advise of being present in what your doing, not thinking of the past or future and living in the moment is something I think we can all learn from. In an age of everyone spreading themselves out, I think we forget how to live in the moment. In this episode we talk about Joe's love for music as a kid, growing up in Chicago, working the Greek Islands, finding his voice and love for performing in high school, how his father was the one that told him to leave home and so much more.
