BEST OF: How To Trust God on the Way to an Amazing Creative Life w/ Téja Veal, Bassist / Vocalist
Episode description
Just how far can trusting God take you as a creative and musician?
In this episode, you'll learn how faith, hard work and perseverance can lead to incredible experiences that only God could orchestrate - through the example of our guest, bassist, band leader and vocalist Téja Veal in this encore interview.
A world-renowned artist in her own right, Téja Veal has worked with top jazz, pop and R&B artists for years and has graced many of the biggest stages in the world. Starting as a teen playing bass in her school band, she has since worked with artists like Musiq Soulchild and Janelle Monae, shared the stage with Prince, and played in the White House for President Obama.
In this inspiring "Best Of" interview first aired in 2020, she shares how her deep faith has directed her on every stage - from playing for the Grammys, to the White House, to serving as a worship director.
In this episode, Teja reveals:
- Why she refused to be relegated to a certain instrument simply because of her gender
- How being faithful in small opportunities became a catalyst for big ones
- The amazing story of her face-to-face meeting with Prince
- Why attitude and character are more important than talent
