Episode description

In this three-part episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with my son, Skyler, for a heartfelt and meaningful conversation about our shared musical journeys. I reflect on my early experiences, from singing at the Georgia Mountain Fair to my time on Star Search and recording an album in Nashville. I also talk about learning percussion and how my lessons with Tim Howard shaped my approach to music.

Skyler and I explore the balance between utility and creativity in our craft, discussing how mentorship, practice, accountability, and flexibility have contributed to our growth as musicians. We also delve into the importance of exploring different genres and attending live performances, highlighting the transformative power of music and the connections it fosters.

It’s an episode filled with personal stories, lessons learned, and the unique bond between father and son. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation!
