12:46 Speaker 14: Uh So.

12:46 Speaker 12: I started playing guitar when I was seven years old. Okay,

12:50 Speaker 12: my uncle got me an electric electric guitar, so I

12:53 Speaker 12: was playing you know Metallica, Iron Maiden, you know all

12:58 Speaker 12: the Megadeath, you know Green Day. And then when I

13:02 Speaker 12: was freshman in high school, I had to do a

13:05 Speaker 12: guitar class, so I had to get an acoustic guitar

13:07 Speaker 12: because I didn't have enough for all the kids. So sure,

13:09 Speaker 12: I had to go buy one, got one, never looked back.

13:12 Speaker 13: Yeah.

13:13 Speaker 12: So I've been playing since I was like seven, and

13:14 Speaker 12: I've been doing like full time gigging for about a

13:19 Speaker 12: little over ten years.

13:20 Speaker 11: Oh, excellent, excellent.

13:21 Speaker 3: Wow.

13:21 Speaker 11: Where are you from?

13:22 Speaker 12: Uh So? I was born in Lawrence, Massachusetts. Okay, moved

13:25 Speaker 12: to Nashville when I was about six years old. So

13:28 Speaker 12: I've been in Nasha since about two thousand and two

13:30 Speaker 12: thousand and one.

13:31 Speaker 11: Okay, okay, now how did you how did you when

13:36 Speaker 11: when you were starting out? I mean, did you always

13:39 Speaker 11: do a solo acoustic thing or did you play a band?

13:41 Speaker 12: I've always done solo acoustic.

13:43 Speaker 2: Ye.

13:44 Speaker 12: Over the years, now that I've you know, been doing

13:48 Speaker 12: with like, you know, bands and like get up on

13:50 Speaker 12: stage with bands and as far as that goes. But

13:53 Speaker 12: I usually just do it solo.

13:55 Speaker 11: It's easier, right, I mean it's you know, you don't

13:58 Speaker 11: depend on anybody else for ye know, their availability and

14:02 Speaker 11: in terms of rehearsing and playing shows and.

14:04 Speaker 12: All that exactly exactly. It's it's a it's a little

20:35 Speaker 11: is is there anyone that you covered that you found

20:37 Speaker 11: challenging to do, like vocally.

20:39 Speaker 12: Or Steely Dan Amy Winehouse. Really yeah, Yeah, Vocally they're

20:45 Speaker 12: pretty challenging. I mean some of the new Benson Boone

20:49 Speaker 12: songs that I've been working on challenging as well.

20:52 Speaker 11: Now what is it about so somebody like I'm curious

20:54 Speaker 11: that somebody like seely Dan for example, What what is

20:56 Speaker 11: it that's that's challenging about that?

20:58 Speaker 12: Oh my god. They are such nerds when it comes

21:01 Speaker 12: to the musicality of it. Yeah, pronunciation of when when

21:06 Speaker 12: you know you're singing, And I mean Michael McDonald did

21:09 Speaker 12: an interview about how when he was recording PEG with

21:12 Speaker 12: Donald Fagan, Yeah, and how he was very that's the

21:17 Speaker 12: word I'm looking for. He wanted it perfectly. He wanted

21:21 Speaker 12: it perfectly every single time. So this pronunciation with his words,

21:24 Speaker 12: how he was pronunciating it, I was singing it everything.

21:27 Speaker 12: It took him like seventeen to eighteen takes no can

21:29 Speaker 12: do the harmonies on PEG or whatever he goes. It

21:31 Speaker 12: was one of the hardest things I've ever read to do.

21:33 Speaker 11: Oh wow wow.

21:34 Speaker 21: Yeah.

21:35 Speaker 11: Is it important to you when when you do these covers?

21:37 Speaker 11: Is it important to you to sing them as closely

21:39 Speaker 11: as possible to the original.

21:41 Speaker 12: I like to bring a justice but also make it

21:43 Speaker 12: my own. Yeah, give it my own twist on it

21:45 Speaker 12: in a way, so it's not oh hey, he's just

21:48 Speaker 12: you know, like the other everybody else the run of

21:50 Speaker 12: the mill, right right, Yeah, stand out a little bit.

21:53 Speaker 11: So yeah, no doubt, no doubt. What are do you

21:56 Speaker 11: have a favorite like, do you have a favorite cover

21:58 Speaker 11: that you do? Is there one that really kind of

22:01 Speaker 11: stands out of something to every show?

22:03 Speaker 12: I just I went over this, I get this question,

22:05 Speaker 12: actually asked a lot. Yeah, it's hard to say. I

22:09 Speaker 12: have like almost two hundred songs that I play off

22:11 Speaker 12: to my head, so yeah, it's hard to like pick

22:13 Speaker 12: and choose. It's usually ones that like I'm like just

22:16 Speaker 12: learning or you know what i mean, just getting out

22:18 Speaker 12: there to play. Yeah, as of lately, it's been noa

22:21 Speaker 12: Kn's Dial Drunk. I really enjoying playing that one out lately.

22:26 Speaker 11: Yeah.

22:26 Speaker 12: Yeah, it kind of always fluctuates for me.

22:28 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.

22:30 Speaker 11: What's the longest show you've done?

22:32 Speaker 12: Oh man, the longest show I've done I think was

22:34 Speaker 12: like seven and a half hours.

22:35 Speaker 11: Oh my god. Okay, tell me about it. Way seven

22:38 Speaker 11: and a half hours.

22:39 Speaker 12: Yeah, it was a private pool party.

22:41 Speaker 11: Because usually when I ask people this question, I'll get like, oh,

22:43 Speaker 11: you know, we did a five hours, like seven and

22:45 Speaker 11: a half yeah, yeah, yeah.

22:47 Speaker 12: So so like I did like a lot of like

22:48 Speaker 12: the shows like El Street Tovern last year, and yeah,

22:53 Speaker 12: there was a couple of times like that I had

22:55 Speaker 12: to do both of the shows because one of the

22:57 Speaker 12: guys canceled. Yeah, or so I had to go on

23:00 Speaker 12: there early, play from like three to three thirty to

23:02 Speaker 12: seven thirty, then play seven thirty to midnight or wow.

23:06 Speaker 12: Yeah it's rough. It's rough.

23:08 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, but why we do it?

23:10 Speaker 12: You know what I mean?

23:11 Speaker 11: When you do something like that? Do you do anything

23:12 Speaker 11: special for your voice too?

23:14 Speaker 12: Like I really just drink tea and lemons. Oh that's

23:17 Speaker 12: really all I do. Especially I didn't drink any today.

23:19 Speaker 12: I was running late this night.

23:20 Speaker 11: Oh you sound great, now, you sound great? And yeah,

23:24 Speaker 11: but pretty unusual to sing this early, probably right, it

23:27 Speaker 11: is for me.

23:28 Speaker 12: Usually usually I'm waking up at like three really yeah yeah,

23:32 Speaker 12: getting ready to go to work at six.

23:34 Speaker 11: Yeah, there you go, there you go, yep. So and

23:38 Speaker 11: as far as playing, I mean, obviously, with what you

23:40 Speaker 11: do you're able to play, you know, you can play

23:43 Speaker 11: just about anywhere, but just about like do you get

23:46 Speaker 11: out of do you get out of New England much?

23:48 Speaker 12: Or do you kind of stick to I Actually I

23:50 Speaker 12: haven't played. I play in Massachusetts a lot. Yeah, do

23:54 Speaker 12: like Brownies Pub. I usually do Muddy Waters where's that

31:02 Speaker 11: the time, I was working for a promoter, Joe Fletcher,

31:04 Speaker 11: who's he's not here, he's on the West Coast now,

31:07 Speaker 11: but he used to. He used to have big world

31:08 Speaker 11: productions here in New Hampshire, and so he was he

31:12 Speaker 11: was putting on shows around New England and he did

31:14 Speaker 11: a bunch of shows with her. But yeah, that's that's

31:16 Speaker 11: how I met her. And yeah, she was fantastic.

31:19 Speaker 12: She's absolutely incredible. So I just went and saw her,

31:23 Speaker 12: first time I've ever seen her. I used to watch

31:25 Speaker 12: her show videos all the time. My mom got me

31:27 Speaker 12: into her. Yeah, I had front row seats with her

31:30 Speaker 12: and I called out. I yelled at shame play shameless

31:34 Speaker 12: her and it happened to be the last song that

32:29 Speaker 11: time where like, like today, it's not even a big deal,

32:32 Speaker 11: right because of the Internet, anybody can can start a lab,

32:36 Speaker 11: you know, quote unquote right, but she but she did

32:39 Speaker 11: it at a time when it was unusual, and you know,

32:43 Speaker 11: I I know she's talked in interviews about how you know,

32:45 Speaker 11: she faced a lot of headwinds doing that. People didn't

32:48 Speaker 11: necessarily believe in her, give her a chance.

32:52 Speaker 12: for the women of the you know.

33:03 Speaker 11: who thinks she can do this?

33:04 Speaker 4: You know?

33:04 Speaker 11: But but she was determined to do it, and she

33:06 Speaker 11: did it.

1:01:50 Speaker 11: Welcome back to the show.

1:01:52 Speaker 26: Hi, Thanks thanks for having me.

1:01:54 Speaker 11: Yeah, we talked. Uh, so we did talk a little bit.

1:01:58 Speaker 11: It was a couple of months. It was still during

1:01:59 Speaker 11: the winter, or was the end of winter. It was

1:02:01 Speaker 11: like it was like roll. It was like we thought

1:02:05 Speaker 11: winter was over and then woke up one morning to

1:02:08 Speaker 11: a winter wonderland.

1:02:10 Speaker 26: That was That was wild.

1:02:11 Speaker 11: Yeah, that was that was That was so traveling was

1:02:15 Speaker 11: a bit difficult, but you did call in, so that

1:02:17 Speaker 11: was great. But it's great to see you in person.

1:02:18 Speaker 11: And the last time I saw you in person was

1:02:20 Speaker 11: of course on Rob as a Vito show granted State

1:02:22 Speaker 11: of Mind. So that was a lot of fun. But

1:02:25 Speaker 11: welcome back. Thanks, And I know we talked about it

1:02:27 Speaker 11: on Rob show. But that song wild, that's you know,

1:02:29 Speaker 11: it's different for you, different than than Can you tell

1:02:33 Speaker 11: us again the story of how that came together in

1:02:35 Speaker 11: the studio for people who might maybe not have heard

1:02:37 Speaker 11: us talking about it before.

1:02:38 Speaker 26: Yeah, it was really cool because I was doing a

1:02:40 Speaker 26: collection of songs at Rocking Horse Studio and I went

1:02:44 Speaker 26: in one day just to lay the piano tracks, because

1:02:47 Speaker 26: all three songs that I had chosen were piano based

1:02:49 Speaker 26: songs that I had written on that instrument, and so

1:02:53 Speaker 26: I laid the three songs and then I was like,

1:02:55 Speaker 26: you know, I do have another piano song that I

1:02:57 Speaker 26: could throw in here, but it was kind of a

1:02:59 Speaker 26: last minute Let's try it. Let me just record the

1:03:02 Speaker 26: piano and let you guys hear it, and if down

1:03:05 Speaker 26: the road you feel it and we want to add

1:03:07 Speaker 26: anything to it, we will. And so I kind of

1:03:09 Speaker 26: did it on a whim. Again, I had only been

1:03:12 Speaker 26: planning on doing three singles, and the guys in the

1:03:15 Speaker 26: studio they loved it, and I wasn't. I hadn't gone

1:03:19 Speaker 26: in with any idea of production or anything, so again

1:03:22 Speaker 26: wasn't planning on recording it, and so because of that,

1:03:25 Speaker 26: we had a lot of freedom to just try stuff,

1:03:27 Speaker 26: and the production ended up coming out really unique and

1:03:31 Speaker 26: different than anything I've done. So it was an exciting

1:03:34 Speaker 26: process and really fun. And my dad's actually on that

1:03:36 Speaker 26: track too. He did a speaking part that's kind of

1:03:39 Speaker 26: embedded in there, which is pretty neat.

1:03:42 Speaker 11: Yeah, when you approached him with that, what did he like?

1:03:45 Speaker 11: How did he react it? First? Was he was he

1:03:47 Speaker 11: into it? Was he skeptical? Was he like, what you

1:03:49 Speaker 11: want me to do?

1:03:49 Speaker 17: What I think?

1:03:50 Speaker 26: He was like so excited, but he was also nervous.

1:03:55 Speaker 11: So both yeah, yeah, no, it came out great. Do

1:03:59 Speaker 11: you do you usually write on the piano. You mentioned

1:04:02 Speaker 11: the three tracks you recorded, there were all songs you

1:04:04 Speaker 11: wrote on the piano.

1:04:05 Speaker 26: I've been writing more on the piano, but a piano

1:04:08 Speaker 26: was actually my first instrument when I was younger. But

1:04:11 Speaker 26: I was I learned classically, so I was, you know,

1:04:14 Speaker 26: classically trained kind of, and so it took me a

1:04:18 Speaker 26: while to realize, oh, I could write on piano just

1:04:21 Speaker 26: like I write on guitar, because you know, you've heard

1:04:23 Speaker 26: guitar all you need is three chords in the truth.

1:04:26 Speaker 26: So once I learned three chords on guitar, it was like,

1:04:28 Speaker 26: oh my gosh, I was writing all these songs. I

1:04:29 Speaker 26: was in eighth grade, and I was just like, oh,

1:04:31 Speaker 26: I'm writing about my life. This is awesome.

1:04:33 Speaker 11: Yeah.

1:04:34 Speaker 26: But it wasn't until much later that I kind of

1:04:36 Speaker 26: challenged myself to think, wait, I think I could create

1:04:40 Speaker 26: stuff on the piano as well. So, yeah, I do.

1:04:43 Speaker 26: I do both. And sometimes I don't write on an

1:04:45 Speaker 26: instrument at all. I just I lyrics and melody comes first,

1:04:48 Speaker 26: and I do I'll write like a whole song with

1:04:51 Speaker 26: no instrument and then add things later.

1:04:53 Speaker 11: Yeah, I've heard a lot of a lot of instructors

1:04:57 Speaker 11: say that it's it's a good idea to learn at

1:05:00 Speaker 11: least no matter what instrument you're playing, to learn at

1:05:03 Speaker 11: least some basic keyboarding because it will help you with

1:05:05 Speaker 11: everything else, which sadly, I never bothered to do. I had.

1:05:09 Speaker 11: I had one of those old, cheap Cassio keyboards growing up,

1:05:12 Speaker 11: but I never really learned to play it. But yeah,

1:05:15 Speaker 11: but what do you play anything else? You play guitar,

1:05:17 Speaker 11: you play piano, do you play anything else?

1:05:19 Speaker 26: Or every now and then, if someone lets me, I'll

1:05:23 Speaker 26: play kahone really yeah, yeah, like on one of their

1:05:27 Speaker 26: songs or something. But just I don't. I haven't done

1:05:30 Speaker 26: anything technical with it. I have my dad has a

1:05:33 Speaker 26: bass guitar that he was learning how to play, and

1:05:36 Speaker 26: I've picked that up a couple of times and fiddled

1:05:38 Speaker 26: around with it. It's an instrument i'd like to learn.

1:05:40 Speaker 26: I just haven't dedicated enough time to it.

1:05:43 Speaker 11: Yeah, you can pick it up quick, I mean, if

1:05:45 Speaker 11: you're already played guitar, you can pick up the bass

1:05:46 Speaker 11: pretty quick.

1:05:47 Speaker 26: Yeah, It's it makes sense because it's sprets and I

1:05:50 Speaker 26: tried to learn violin when I was younger, and I

1:05:52 Speaker 26: also attempted the saxophone both. I thought I was doing

1:05:56 Speaker 26: pretty good, but I think my family didn't agree, right.

1:06:01 Speaker 11: Right, saxophones loud instrument, Yeah, no, they're so.

1:06:05 Speaker 26: Super supportive, but I think there are some instruments that, like,

1:06:08 Speaker 26: if it's not coming quickly and naturally, might be more

1:06:11 Speaker 26: painful to listen.

1:06:12 Speaker 11: To them, right, No, that makes sense, that makes sense.

1:06:15 Speaker 26: Yeah, yeah, But I love the violin. I wish that

1:06:18 Speaker 26: I had fully learned it because it's just so beautiful.

1:06:21 Speaker 11: Yeah.

1:06:21 Speaker 10: Yeah.

1:06:22 Speaker 11: Now do you have a busy summer? Are you playing

1:06:23 Speaker 11: a lot? I would imagine you're playing out there.

1:06:25 Speaker 26: Yeah, yeah, And I have some things I'm excited about.

1:06:28 Speaker 26: I I record with other instrumentalists and singers, like most

1:06:34 Speaker 26: of my music is recorded with a band and kind

1:06:36 Speaker 26: of bringing out that fuller production. But normally when I perform,

1:06:41 Speaker 26: I'm pretty much always solo. I haven't really done band

1:06:45 Speaker 26: shows since, you know, my different album release shows that

1:06:48 Speaker 26: I did years ago, and a couple other kind of

1:06:51 Speaker 26: special things. But this summer I have a full band

1:06:54 Speaker 26: show coming up at Bank in New Hampshire Pavilion on

1:06:56 Speaker 26: their side stage. Oh wow, So that'll be fun to

1:07:00 Speaker 26: bring the fullness back together again and perform with other people.

1:07:03 Speaker 26: And then I don't know if you know Chris Noise.

1:07:06 Speaker 26: He's a bass player. He played on these new singles

1:07:09 Speaker 26: on Wild and.

1:07:11 Speaker 11: I don't think I know Chris. Is he related to

1:07:13 Speaker 11: Ron Noise?

1:07:14 Speaker 26: I don't know, because.

1:07:15 Speaker 11: Ron's a musician, I wonder if they're related. No, I

1:07:18 Speaker 11: don't think I know Chris.

1:07:19 Speaker 26: So he played bass on some of my studio tracks.

1:07:22 Speaker 26: And he's playing with me up in Portsmouth at the

1:07:25 Speaker 26: Tuesdays on the Terrace at Strawberry Bank Museum.

1:07:27 Speaker 11: Oh cool.

1:07:28 Speaker 26: So we've got that and a couple other kind of

1:07:30 Speaker 26: fun outdoor summer shows where I'm playing with him and

1:07:33 Speaker 26: another guy on drums. So yeah, it'll be fun to

1:07:37 Speaker 26: play with other people again and bring the songs to

1:07:40 Speaker 26: life in a different way.

1:07:41 Speaker 11: Yeah, but it doesn't sound like you have any any

1:07:43 Speaker 11: interest in doing like a permanent full band.

1:07:46 Speaker 26: We'll see see where things go. I'm never Before we

1:07:50 Speaker 26: went live on air, you guys were saying, like we go.

1:07:53 Speaker 15: With the flow.

1:07:54 Speaker 26: Like I'm not really married to anything. It's kind of

1:07:56 Speaker 26: how I feel.

1:07:57 Speaker 17: I don't know.

1:07:58 Speaker 26: I have I have hopes, but I don't have like

1:08:01 Speaker 26: necessarily set in stone expectations that I want or don't want.

1:08:05 Speaker 26: So if it came together naturally and it was like

1:08:08 Speaker 26: really fun and everybody totally gibed, I could see doing.

1:08:11 Speaker 11: More of it for sure. Yeah, no, that makes sense.

1:08:14 Speaker 11: And are you still are you still just putting out

1:08:16 Speaker 11: singles or do you have an EP or I don't.

1:08:19 Speaker 26: I was just shy of an EP when I recorded

1:08:21 Speaker 26: my four songs. I mean, I suppose I could have

1:08:24 Speaker 26: turned it into a collection. I've thought about adding some

1:08:27 Speaker 26: songs and making it a full collection. I'm not there yet,

1:08:31 Speaker 26: I haven't. I actually have one kind of wintery song,

1:08:36 Speaker 26: not to bring snow back up on. I have one

1:08:40 Speaker 26: song that I'm working on recording. It's kind of a

1:08:44 Speaker 26: mix of I recorded some of it at home and

1:08:47 Speaker 26: some of it at Mike Moran's home studio. He is

1:08:50 Speaker 26: a drummer and a bass player and a guitarist, and

1:08:53 Speaker 26: we've played together a lot in the past, and we

1:08:55 Speaker 26: have some stuff coming up this summer, so we've been

1:08:57 Speaker 26: working on producing that song together. So and then I

1:09:02 Speaker 26: have some other ideas, but nothing no like exciting release

1:09:06 Speaker 26: dates to share.

1:09:07 Speaker 11: Yeah. Right now, You've worked with a number of different producers, right,

1:09:10 Speaker 11: it seems like you've.

1:09:11 Speaker 26: Yeah, every project has been totally different. First record I

1:09:16 Speaker 26: recorded in New Hampshire with Ryan Ordway and then yeah,

1:09:21 Speaker 26: yeah and that was really fun. And then my second

1:09:23 Speaker 26: record I recorded on the South Shore in mass with

1:09:26 Speaker 26: Sean McLoughlin. And then this last collection I did with

1:09:30 Speaker 26: Brian Coombs at Rocking Horror Studios in Pittsfield. And then

1:09:33 Speaker 26: I've done a little bit tried to do a little

1:09:35 Speaker 26: bit of home recording too and kind of feeling that out.

1:09:38 Speaker 26: But it is a lot of work to record your

1:09:40 Speaker 26: own stuff. I mean, it's a lot of work to

1:09:41 Speaker 26: go to the studio too, but oh yeah, you have

1:09:43 Speaker 26: other hands and eyes and ears on it, and they

1:09:47 Speaker 26: know what they're doing more than like I'm sort of

1:09:49 Speaker 26: learning as I go. But it's fun. I like that

1:09:51 Speaker 26: part of it too.

1:09:52 Speaker 11: Oh yeah, yeah, let's the adventure of it.

1:09:54 Speaker 8: Yeah.

1:09:54 Speaker 11: Do you want to play something for us?

1:09:56 Speaker 15: Yeah?

1:09:56 Speaker 11: Sure, let me turn up that. Yeah, go and god

1:10:02 Speaker 11: and strum a little. Just want to make sure I

1:10:03 Speaker 11: get there. Oh yeah, that sounds good. Badphones, yeah, excellent?

1:10:09 Speaker 26: All right, cool, I'm gonna play a brand new one

1:10:12 Speaker 26: for you if that's okay. Absolutely, so I've been trying

1:10:16 Speaker 26: to challenge myself. I think I mentioned this to you

1:10:19 Speaker 26: last time I saw you challenge myself to make time

1:10:23 Speaker 26: for songwriting, which sounds like, well, duh, you're a songwriter, right,

1:10:26 Speaker 26: is that all you do? But sometimes the weeks just

1:10:30 Speaker 26: go by and I'm like, oh my gosh, like my

1:10:32 Speaker 26: creative need is just like being squished down. And so

1:10:37 Speaker 26: I've been trying to bring that more to the forefront.

1:10:39 Speaker 26: So in trying to write more songs, which if anyone's listening,

1:10:42 Speaker 26: I would like to follow along on my new songwriting journey.

1:10:45 Speaker 26: I've been sharing things, all the new stuff on Patreon,

1:10:49 Speaker 26: which is like a place online that you can support artists,

1:10:52 Speaker 26: and patreon dot com slash Katie Doobbins music. But this

1:10:56 Speaker 26: is one of the ones that I wrote for my

1:10:59 Speaker 26: almost song a Week project, not quite a song a week,

1:11:03 Speaker 26: but it's called Coffee in the Morning, and it's about

1:11:07 Speaker 26: how when you fall in love and suddenly you're liking

1:11:10 Speaker 26: things and doing things that you never really cared about before,

1:11:13 Speaker 26: just because of that other person.

1:11:15 Speaker 23: You know, is it that wrangler or your rugged hands

1:11:28 Speaker 23: in my is it that open road or the smell.

1:11:33 Speaker 2: Of your cologne?

1:11:36 Speaker 23: Do I even like the challenge of a standard. It's

1:11:42 Speaker 23: just the way you laugh every time I stall it.

1:11:51 Speaker 23: I don't even know if I like coffee in the morning.

1:11:57 Speaker 23: Maybe that's just something out the way you pull it

1:12:02 Speaker 23: for me as the soul lights up the kitchen. We're

1:12:06 Speaker 23: too early for my liking, but I like having that

1:12:11 Speaker 23: quiet time with you. Is it that country song or

1:12:20 Speaker 23: the way you sing it for me?

1:12:24 Speaker 26: Is it that dance floor or.

1:12:25 Speaker 23: The way you pull me clothes? Do I even like

1:12:32 Speaker 23: staying up past midnight? Or just the way you hold

1:12:37 Speaker 23: my handwalking in me home. I don't even know if

1:12:47 Speaker 23: I should like that whiskey bourbon. Maybe there's just something

1:12:53 Speaker 23: about the taste of it on your lips as the

1:12:57 Speaker 23: moon lights.

1:12:58 Speaker 2: Up the kitchen.

1:13:00 Speaker 23: Too late for my liking, but I like talking into

1:13:05 Speaker 23: the night with you. I don't even know if I

1:13:12 Speaker 23: like bike rides, game night, using.

1:13:17 Speaker 15: Fireflies in a jar. I don't think I haven't need

1:13:24 Speaker 15: to go.

1:13:26 Speaker 23: Fishing or stay all night chasing stars unless it's where

1:13:35 Speaker 23: you are, unless it's.

1:13:39 Speaker 15: When you.

1:13:49 Speaker 23: Because I don't even know if I like coffee in

1:13:54 Speaker 23: the morning. Maybe there's just something in about the way

1:14:00 Speaker 23: poor informed me is the swing lights up the kitchen

1:14:04 Speaker 23: way too early for my liking.

1:14:08 Speaker 26: But I like Kevin, that quiet time with you.

1:14:18 Speaker 23: I don't even know if I like coffee in the morning,

1:14:25 Speaker 23: but I know how really like.

1:14:30 Speaker 15: The way you poor it for me.

1:14:39 Speaker 11: Oh that's beautiful, Thank you, very nice, very nice. So

1:14:44 Speaker 11: that's uh so that's new. That's that's very new then, right?

1:14:48 Speaker 26: Yeah, I reade that a couple of months ago.

1:14:50 Speaker 11: Now, very cool, very cool. If you're just joining us.

1:14:53 Speaker 11: Katie Dobbins is here with us, alive in studio and

1:14:56 Speaker 11: sounding amazing. So so you have are you playing that

1:15:01 Speaker 11: one out curly or is that or have you not?

1:15:03 Speaker 2: Yeah?

1:15:04 Speaker 26: I played it a couple of times at live shows.

1:15:06 Speaker 26: I think that was the radio debut.

1:15:08 Speaker 11: Okay, awesome, We Love That, We Love the We Love

1:15:11 Speaker 11: the World premieres here. Do you have any idea how

1:15:15 Speaker 11: many songs you've written at this point? Can you put

1:15:16 Speaker 11: in like like like is it in triple digits yet?

1:15:20 Speaker 4: Do you think?

1:15:20 Speaker 9: Or?

1:15:21 Speaker 15: Oh?

1:15:22 Speaker 26: I mean it probably depends on if I want to

1:15:26 Speaker 26: count every song I've ever written, probably yes, But if

1:15:29 Speaker 26: I just count the ones that I like, yeah, I'm

1:15:33 Speaker 26: not sure.

1:15:34 Speaker 11: Yeah. Do they? Do you have some that you've kind

1:15:37 Speaker 11: of retired, Like, are there some early ones that used

1:15:39 Speaker 11: to play that you don't play anymore?

1:15:40 Speaker 26: Yeah, I mean I I play the stuff from my

1:15:44 Speaker 26: first album still. I play several of those songs out yea,

1:15:49 Speaker 26: not all of them. And then there are some, yeah,

1:15:52 Speaker 26: the some originals that I used to play, Like when

1:15:55 Speaker 26: you first write it and you're like, I really love

1:15:57 Speaker 26: this song because you wrote you just wrote it, so

1:15:59 Speaker 26: you're right and real, like passionate and emotional about it

1:16:02 Speaker 26: because you know it just came from.

1:16:04 Speaker 11: Your Yeah, it's most being.

1:16:06 Speaker 26: And yeah, So I had some like that I felt

1:16:10 Speaker 26: really excited about in the moment, and then kind of

1:16:12 Speaker 26: down the road was that sort of faded, you know,

1:16:15 Speaker 26: and they really got their full full moment in the sun,

1:16:18 Speaker 26: I guess.

1:16:19 Speaker 7: Yeah.

1:16:19 Speaker 11: Yeah, I've probably asked you this before, but do you

1:16:21 Speaker 11: remember the first song you ever wrote?

1:16:25 Speaker 26: The first song I wrote was a co write. Well,

1:16:29 Speaker 26: the first song I wrote was actually a cappella in

1:16:31 Speaker 26: like fifth grade, and I wrote it my best friend

1:16:35 Speaker 26: had moved to California and I was so sad, and

1:16:38 Speaker 26: so I wrote this song about you know. I think

1:16:40 Speaker 26: it was called best Friend. The first song I ever

1:16:42 Speaker 26: wrote on guitar was a co write. My friend Sarah

1:16:45 Speaker 26: Ellen had taught me a few chords on guitar and

1:16:49 Speaker 26: she had been writing songs, so we're like, let's write

1:16:51 Speaker 26: a song together. And we wrote a song about our

1:16:53 Speaker 26: grandfather's But if you asked me to play it, I

1:16:57 Speaker 26: truly don't remember how it goes.

1:16:58 Speaker 2: Yeah.

1:16:59 Speaker 26: I remember thinking it was really good. I was so

1:17:02 Speaker 26: you know, we were so excited about it, and we

1:17:03 Speaker 26: played it at some open mics and things like that,

1:17:07 Speaker 26: which is like really really fun. Yeah, you know, you're

1:17:09 Speaker 26: in eighth grade on stage playing a duet that you

1:17:12 Speaker 26: wrote and you just feel like a rock star.

1:17:14 Speaker 8: Yeah.

1:17:15 Speaker 11: Yeah, Now have you you've been doing this full time

1:17:18 Speaker 11: now for quite some time?

1:17:19 Speaker 26: Right, a few years now?

1:17:21 Speaker 23: Yeah.

1:17:22 Speaker 26: I think I made the shift to full time in

1:17:24 Speaker 26: like spring of twenty twenty one or twenty twenty two, okay, Yeah,

1:17:30 Speaker 26: And it took took a while to find my stride

1:17:32 Speaker 26: and still kind of, you know, figuring out balance. I

1:17:35 Speaker 26: feel like I talk about balance a lot, but it's hard,

1:17:38 Speaker 26: Like you wear so many hats when you're oh yeah,

1:17:40 Speaker 26: music is a it's not just songwriting and performing, but

1:17:43 Speaker 26: you're I think of it as like you're running your

1:17:45 Speaker 26: own business. You know, you're booking, you're promoting, you're trying

1:17:48 Speaker 26: to make money, you're doing you know, recording all this stuff. Yeah,

1:17:51 Speaker 26: and so finding balance and a good rhythm is something

1:17:54 Speaker 26: I feel like I'm always like working on getting a

1:17:58 Speaker 26: little more honed in. But it's fun. I love it,

1:18:02 Speaker 26: and since making the decision to do it full time,

1:18:04 Speaker 26: I've never regretted it at all. But I will say

1:18:07 Speaker 26: it's not for everyone because I feel like whenever I

1:18:10 Speaker 26: tell another artist, oh, yeah, I do it full time,

1:18:13 Speaker 26: because they'll ask what do you do during the day,

1:18:16 Speaker 26: And I feel like a lot of times people say, oh,

1:18:18 Speaker 26: like I want to do that too. I'm just I'm

1:18:20 Speaker 26: trying to get there, and almost from a place of

1:18:24 Speaker 26: like they feel like they're not doing it yet if

1:18:26 Speaker 26: they're not doing it full time or something, and it's

1:18:29 Speaker 26: like you really have to assess. I mean, it's it's

1:18:32 Speaker 26: it adds a sort of you have to really want

1:18:36 Speaker 26: to do it full time and know that there's going

1:18:38 Speaker 26: to be a period of like hardship that comes with that,

1:18:41 Speaker 26: and be okay with that. And also there's nothing wrong

1:18:44 Speaker 26: with having, you know, a job that you're good at

1:18:47 Speaker 26: or that you like that you know funds funds what

1:18:50 Speaker 26: you love too, and it gives you that like consistency.

1:18:54 Speaker 26: So I love doing it how I'm doing it, But

1:18:57 Speaker 26: I don't think it's for everybody. So when I say that,

1:19:00 Speaker 26: if you're an artist listening, don't feel pressured to like

1:19:03 Speaker 26: I need to do that too, You don't, you know,

1:19:04 Speaker 26: everybody does this so differently.

1:19:06 Speaker 11: So yeah, and I think too, you know, if you

1:19:10 Speaker 11: you can still call yourself a professional musician even if

1:19:12 Speaker 11: you're doing it part time. You know, the way I've

1:19:15 Speaker 11: always looked at it is, and really with any profession,

1:19:18 Speaker 11: you can call yourself a professional if you've ever been

1:19:20 Speaker 11: paid for what you do. True, That's how I look

1:19:22 Speaker 11: at it. So even if even if you you know,

1:19:24 Speaker 11: you've just gotten you know, thirty dollars you know, playing

1:19:28 Speaker 11: a set somewhere, well, you're now a professional musician. If

1:19:31 Speaker 11: somebody somebody gave you money, you know, for that, then

1:19:33 Speaker 11: you're now a professional. And you know, I think I

1:19:37 Speaker 11: think sometimes, yeah, I think sometimes people get self conscious

1:19:40 Speaker 11: about it, you know, if they're if they're doing it

1:19:42 Speaker 11: part time, you know, but they're still working at something else.

1:19:45 Speaker 11: But but I think too, part of the key is

1:19:47 Speaker 11: and you kind of alluded to it. If you have

1:19:49 Speaker 11: if you have another job that you really love, then

1:19:52 Speaker 11: you know, because the important thing is to fill your life,

1:19:55 Speaker 11: I think with things that you love to do, you know,

1:19:58 Speaker 11: whether it's part time, full time time, whether you're a

1:20:01 Speaker 11: full time musician or a part time musician and full

1:20:04 Speaker 11: time doing something else, or whatever it is. You know,

1:20:06 Speaker 11: don't you don't want to no matter what. You don't

1:20:08 Speaker 11: want to waste your life doing things you hate, which

1:20:11 Speaker 11: is what a lot of people do. You know, They

1:20:13 Speaker 11: work their whole lives at a job they don't like,

1:20:15 Speaker 11: and it's like, why find something you love?

1:20:19 Speaker 4: You know?

1:20:19 Speaker 26: You know definitely.

1:20:20 Speaker 11: Now, do you have any advice for people who are

1:20:23 Speaker 11: you know, because a lot of musicians listen to the

1:20:25 Speaker 11: show and a lot of industry people. Do you have

1:20:26 Speaker 11: any advice for someone who is really thinking about trying

1:20:30 Speaker 11: to do this full time but they're hesitant?

1:20:34 Speaker 26: Yeah, I would talk to people who are doing it

1:20:36 Speaker 26: full time. Yeah, that's what I did. I talked to

1:20:38 Speaker 26: several people that were doing it full time and I

1:20:40 Speaker 26: was like, what is this really like for you? How

1:20:43 Speaker 26: is this working? And I found out that most people

1:20:46 Speaker 26: that are doing it full time that you know, they

1:20:48 Speaker 26: are getting support in some way loved ones, or they're

1:20:52 Speaker 26: sacrificing something, you know, like my Manny Pattic cares I

1:20:57 Speaker 26: used to be able to get for myself on I mean,

1:21:00 Speaker 26: that's a tiny sacrifice. I'm part kidding, but yeah, you know,

1:21:03 Speaker 26: you said you might sacrifice like some kind of lifestyle

1:21:05 Speaker 26: that you're used to in order to pursue this, And

1:21:08 Speaker 26: I just I would talk to somebody who's doing it,

1:21:10 Speaker 26: or multiple people that are doing it, just to get

1:21:12 Speaker 26: like a full picture of what this actually is before you,

1:21:17 Speaker 26: you know, just put the pedal to the metal and

1:21:21 Speaker 26: you know, give up everything you know and and go

1:21:24 Speaker 26: in blindly. So that because it always sounds like such

1:21:29 Speaker 26: a dream, you know, but you really want to make

1:21:31 Speaker 26: an informed decision about and ask yourself, is this really

1:21:35 Speaker 26: what I want to do?

1:21:36 Speaker 11: Right? And nothing's as glamorous as it looks from the

1:21:39 Speaker 11: outside either, you know, And as you also mentioned, there's

1:21:42 Speaker 11: a lot of work. You know, it's not just creating music,

1:21:45 Speaker 11: it's it's all the business stuff you got to do, right,

1:21:47 Speaker 11: and keeping up with social media too, which some people

1:21:50 Speaker 11: enjoy and embrace and some people are just like I

1:21:52 Speaker 11: wish I didn't have to do that part. But you

1:21:54 Speaker 11: do have to do that part, yep.

1:21:55 Speaker 26: And I feel like it ebbs and flows too, like

1:21:57 Speaker 26: I have and I we used to get harder on myself,

1:22:01 Speaker 26: and I'm accepting this more and more. Like there are

1:22:04 Speaker 26: seasons where I'm doing a lot more stuff online social media,

1:22:08 Speaker 26: you know, posting videos, things like that, and then there

1:22:10 Speaker 26: are seasons where I'm playing out a lot more so

1:22:11 Speaker 26: I don't have as much time to be present online.

1:22:14 Speaker 26: Then there are seasons where, oh it's a slower show season,

1:22:17 Speaker 26: so I'm songwriting or I'm in the studio. And I

1:22:20 Speaker 26: think at first I felt like I have to do

1:22:22 Speaker 26: all these things all the time, you know, like and

1:22:26 Speaker 26: I still feel that a little bit, but it's like

1:22:28 Speaker 26: being okay with the ebb and flow of what it

1:22:31 Speaker 26: means to be an art maker and performer, like distributor

1:22:36 Speaker 26: of that art. There's just you can't always do it

1:22:40 Speaker 26: all all the time or you totally burn out, right.

1:22:43 Speaker 11: Right, Yeah, no doubt. Oh do you want to play

1:22:45 Speaker 11: another one for us?

1:22:46 Speaker 26: Yeah, I'll play giants since you told me like this

1:22:51 Speaker 26: one do.

1:22:52 Speaker 15: Yeah.

1:22:52 Speaker 11: So the first time I heard that was on Rob Show.

1:22:56 Speaker 11: That was the first time i'd heard that song, and yeah,

1:22:58 Speaker 11: I love this song. Yeah cool absolutely Haitie Dobbins live

1:23:01 Speaker 11: in studio.

1:23:03 Speaker 26: I feel like this is a good song to play

1:23:04 Speaker 26: right now too, because it's about doing things that feel

1:23:10 Speaker 26: hard and facing the things that feel impossible in your

1:23:13 Speaker 26: life and remembering that you are actually more powerful than

1:23:16 Speaker 26: you may realize. And the giants in your life they're

1:23:21 Speaker 26: just make believe, like those giants in your closet when

1:23:25 Speaker 26: you're a little kid.

1:23:40 Speaker 23: Your sweatshirt falling off my should it's too big. But

1:23:48 Speaker 23: then again, it onlys was when did I become so small?

1:23:54 Speaker 23: Living in your shadow? I don't fill the space. Ah,

1:24:00 Speaker 23: feel like I've been swallowed. Don't take too much space,

1:24:11 Speaker 23: my mind said, shrink, So I don't riskiny thing bader

1:24:20 Speaker 23: to be safe then to be sorry.

1:28:06 Speaker 11: Great song, great song that one's been out for a

1:28:08 Speaker 11: little while, right, But that is that is that kind

1:28:10 Speaker 11: of newer Yeah, that's.

1:28:12 Speaker 26: Like in my newer collection of singles recorded at Rocking Horse. Okay, okay,

1:28:17 Speaker 26: and that when I actually started writing on the electric guitar. Okay, yeah,

1:28:21 Speaker 26: I have an electric guitar. I just I don't play

1:28:24 Speaker 26: it out. I would like to learn how to do

1:28:26 Speaker 26: cool stuff on it. Yeah yeah, yeah, but yeah, I

1:28:31 Speaker 26: kind of had like a little riff going, and then

1:28:33 Speaker 26: I moved to acoustic guitar, and then I was like, no,

1:28:37 Speaker 26: this is a piano song.

1:28:38 Speaker 11: So oh okay. Have you have you played electric guitar

1:28:41 Speaker 11: on any of your studio recordings so far?

1:28:45 Speaker 26: No other people have played my guitar.

1:28:47 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's in there.

1:28:50 Speaker 2: Yeah.

1:28:50 Speaker 26: Yeah, actually that's not true. I recorded I have a

1:28:53 Speaker 26: single called Starlights that I recorded during the pandemic in

1:28:58 Speaker 26: my home studio that I actually did do my own

1:29:03 Speaker 26: little electric guitar riff on.

1:29:05 Speaker 11: Oh really Yeah, you want.

1:29:06 Speaker 26: To check out my electric guitar playing. You can check

1:29:11 Speaker 26: out Starlights.

1:29:12 Speaker 11: Oh okay, okay, very cool, very cool. When you when

1:29:17 Speaker 11: you play out, I mean you must do some covers too, right,

1:29:19 Speaker 11: I assume you make some covers in yeah.

1:29:21 Speaker 26: Yeah, And it depends on the show. Yeah, if I'm

1:29:23 Speaker 26: doing like a three hour gig, for sure.

1:29:25 Speaker 10: Yeah.

1:29:25 Speaker 26: And then I have I have a bunch of shows

1:29:27 Speaker 26: coming out this summer that are like focused on original

1:29:30 Speaker 26: music that I'm really excited about. Yeah, but even when

1:29:33 Speaker 26: I do that, I'll throw in, you know, one or

1:29:34 Speaker 26: two just people kind of like something familiar, you know,

1:29:38 Speaker 26: and it's fun. It's fun to I always think, like,

1:29:42 Speaker 26: how cool it must be to be Taylor Swift or

1:29:44 Speaker 26: something and you look out and everyone's singing every lyric

1:29:47 Speaker 26: to your song, right, But that's that's fun about covers,

1:29:49 Speaker 26: is you know. Sometimes I'll transition into a cover song

1:29:52 Speaker 26: from an original. It's just fun to look out and

1:29:54 Speaker 26: see people bopping around and singing along with you, and yeah,

1:29:58 Speaker 26: fun moment.

1:29:59 Speaker 1: Do you have?

1:30:00 Speaker 11: Do you do any covers that you found particularly challenging

1:30:03 Speaker 11: to learn? Sometimes I get some surprising answers when I

1:30:06 Speaker 11: ask people this. I'm just curious, like is there anything

1:30:09 Speaker 11: you said I'm going to learn that one? And then

1:30:10 Speaker 11: it turned out to be kind of challenging.

1:30:12 Speaker 26: I don't think so, But I don't learn traditionally, Like

1:30:16 Speaker 26: if I'm learning a new cover, I sort of just

1:30:20 Speaker 26: will look up the chords and then play it however

1:30:22 Speaker 26: feels good to me. Whereas some people are which would

1:30:26 Speaker 26: be good for me to do. Some people are going

1:30:28 Speaker 26: on you know YouTube and like watching a bunch of

1:30:30 Speaker 26: videos and learning how the actual original artist plays it.

1:30:33 Speaker 11: Sure.

1:30:35 Speaker 26: I sometimes when I learn to cover, I don't even

1:30:37 Speaker 26: know the song that well, like I'll kind of know it,

1:30:41 Speaker 26: and then I feel like it makes it easier to

1:30:42 Speaker 26: put my own twists on it because my kind of

1:30:46 Speaker 26: I'm learning it, but also like making it feel good

1:30:50 Speaker 26: to me because I only kind of know the song.

1:30:52 Speaker 11: No, I'm at school, they'll make it your own.

1:30:54 Speaker 12: Yeah.

1:30:54 Speaker 26: Yeah, But I I did learn Forever Young as a

1:30:59 Speaker 26: song I love playing by Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell

1:31:03 Speaker 26: has a version of that song. I'm sorry. Joan Bias

1:31:06 Speaker 26: has a version of that song that's really beautiful, and

1:31:08 Speaker 26: so I did learn her guitar version to it, and

1:31:12 Speaker 26: it was a really pretty like I felt really fancy

1:31:18 Speaker 26: when I learned to this, you know, yeah, and it's

1:31:22 Speaker 26: really pretty. Yeah, So that one I did learn traditionally

1:31:25 Speaker 26: because I was like, that's just so beautiful.

1:31:26 Speaker 11: I got to learn that part that makes sense, that

1:31:30 Speaker 11: makes sense. You want to play another live one? I yeah,

1:31:34 Speaker 11: we got we got time.

1:31:36 Speaker 17: Yeah.

1:31:37 Speaker 11: Selfishly, I want to hear more. You just sound so great.

1:31:39 Speaker 26: Ah, that's so nice. I want to hear another new

1:31:41 Speaker 26: newer one.

1:31:42 Speaker 11: Yeah, that would be cool, that would be great.

1:31:44 Speaker 26: I have a I have a single out. My newest

1:31:46 Speaker 26: single is called Grateful, and it's about gratitude. Yeah shocker uh.

1:31:54 Speaker 26: And so I'm not going to play that, but I

1:31:56 Speaker 26: will play another song that's sort of on the same theme.

1:32:00 Speaker 26: I feel like it's called miss these days, because you know,

1:32:05 Speaker 26: today or someday we're gonna be like that was the

1:32:07 Speaker 26: good old days. So you gotta soak it in.

1:32:09 Speaker 23: Yep, Mama's calling from the kitchen on the other side

1:32:25 Speaker 23: of the house. I can't hear what she's saying. I

1:32:29 Speaker 23: just chuckle to myself, and the dog is going crazy

1:32:34 Speaker 23: about a squirrel outside the window, and Daddy's watching news

1:32:40 Speaker 23: about what God only knows. It's a little bit of

1:32:45 Speaker 23: chaos on a quiet country road, in a humble, old

1:32:50 Speaker 23: brick house where we made ourselves a home. I don't

1:34:17 Speaker 23: a little bit of road rage on a quiet country

1:38:39 Speaker 26: I'll be hik into that and doing that whole thing

1:38:42 Speaker 26: up at Gunstock Mountain. But other than that, my weekend's

1:38:45 Speaker 26: pretty quiet and I've been very much on the go lately.

1:38:49 Speaker 26: I just got back two weeks ago from my first

1:38:52 Speaker 26: solo road trip tour down to Nashville, Tennessee. I was

1:38:56 Speaker 26: gone for a week and a half and I didn't

1:38:59 Speaker 26: really plan and transition time before or after the trip.

1:39:02 Speaker 26: I just said, I was like, yeah, I'll just like

1:39:05 Speaker 26: keep going one hundred miles an hour right up to it,

1:39:08 Speaker 26: and then I'll just come back and get right in

1:39:09 Speaker 26: the swing of things. So I'm definitely feeling the effects

1:39:12 Speaker 26: of that a little bit.

1:39:13 Speaker 15: Yeah, no doubt.

1:39:13 Speaker 26: So I'm kind of happy to have a quiet weekend

1:39:15 Speaker 26: and then things will pick up. I have shows next week.

1:39:19 Speaker 26: On Wednesday, I'm in Portsmouth, and then Thursday I have

1:39:22 Speaker 26: a cool I'm hosting a touring artist at hermit Wood's

1:39:24 Speaker 26: Winery in Meredith, New Hampshire. It's a listening room up there,

1:39:28 Speaker 26: so if you're up in the Lakes region or heading

1:39:30 Speaker 26: up that way, come hang out Thursday night, and then

1:39:33 Speaker 26: I got shows like all weekend, so it'll be a

1:39:35 Speaker 26: nice little break leading into that.

1:39:38 Speaker 11: Excellent, excellent. How was your trip to Nashville?

1:39:41 Speaker 26: It was awesome. Yeah, it was there. You know, I

1:39:47 Speaker 26: felt like I was just really craving a different perspective

1:39:51 Speaker 26: and just being completely immersed in original music and just

1:39:56 Speaker 26: like seeing new people. And I've also been wanting to

1:39:59 Speaker 26: plan a little road trip toward in Nashville for a

1:40:01 Speaker 26: few years now, but I kept kind of coming up

1:40:05 Speaker 26: against some roadblocks and it just didn't felt. I never

1:40:08 Speaker 26: like it when it feels like I'm forcing something and

1:40:10 Speaker 26: it feels like, Okay, maybe this is not the right timing.

1:40:12 Speaker 26: So this finally came together in a really great way

1:40:16 Speaker 26: and I was able to do it, and I was

1:40:19 Speaker 26: down there for I was in I played a show

1:40:21 Speaker 26: in West Virginia on my way down and stayed with

1:40:23 Speaker 26: some friends, which was awesome, and then I was in

1:40:26 Speaker 26: Nashville for seven full days and I played almost every

1:40:30 Speaker 26: night that I was there. I had one or two

1:40:32 Speaker 26: writers round, so it was like I just met so

1:40:35 Speaker 26: many songwriters and you get to hear them because when

1:40:37 Speaker 26: you're playing a writer's round, you know, you play a

1:40:39 Speaker 26: little bit, and then you also get to hear like

1:40:41 Speaker 26: three other people playing in the round, and so it

1:40:44 Speaker 26: was very inspiring. And it's just so it fills your

1:40:48 Speaker 26: cup and inspires you to like be reminded. Oh yeah,

1:40:51 Speaker 26: there's so many people doing this and doing it you

1:40:53 Speaker 26: know successfully, and I just I And I also it's humbling.

1:40:58 Speaker 26: I left feeling like, yeah, I got to get better,

1:41:01 Speaker 26: keep writing, you know, which is what kind of the

1:41:03 Speaker 26: kick in the butt that I wanted. So yeah, it

1:41:05 Speaker 26: was great.

1:41:06 Speaker 11: Yeah that's pressure. Yeah Nashville, Yeah, absolutely, no, it will

1:41:10 Speaker 11: well that's very cool. Yeah, that's very cool.

1:41:12 Speaker 14: Yeah.

1:41:13 Speaker 26: It scratched the itch for touring too. I'm like, yeah,

1:41:15 Speaker 26: let's get on the row.

1:41:16 Speaker 15: Let's go.

1:41:17 Speaker 26: I mean, I mean being a musician.

1:41:19 Speaker 6: I know.

1:41:19 Speaker 26: I talked about the hardships of doing it full time

1:41:21 Speaker 26: and stuff, but part of the reason I initially wanted

1:41:23 Speaker 26: to do it full time was well, I was just

1:41:26 Speaker 26: so hungry to do it, and I was like, if

1:41:27 Speaker 26: I don't try this, I'll never know if I could

1:41:30 Speaker 26: have made it happen, you know.

1:41:32 Speaker 12: So I just had to do it.

1:41:33 Speaker 26: And part of it was I wanted to do touring,

1:41:36 Speaker 26: which I really am just kind of dipping my toe into,

1:41:39 Speaker 26: at least beyond New England. I play all over New England.

1:41:41 Speaker 26: But I wanted to do more touring, and that's hard

1:41:44 Speaker 26: to do when you have a set work schedule. I

1:41:46 Speaker 26: was teaching, so oh yeah, you know, it's kind of

1:41:49 Speaker 26: hard to tour when you need to be in the classroom.

1:41:52 Speaker 26: So I that was part of what I wanted to do.

1:41:55 Speaker 26: So I'm kind of now just starting to be like, Okay,

1:41:58 Speaker 26: what how can this look and how it citing to

1:42:00 Speaker 26: think of, Wow, I could actually go travel to places

1:42:03 Speaker 26: and see different places around the country and play music

1:42:06 Speaker 26: doing it, you know, I mean that's pretty that's pretty sick.

1:42:09 Speaker 3: Yeah.

1:42:09 Speaker 11: Yeah, absolutely. Do you ever miss teaching or I mean,

1:42:13 Speaker 11: I mean, I'm sure, I'm sure you miss.

1:42:14 Speaker 26: Any of my old students are listening so much. I

1:42:19 Speaker 26: did love teaching, I really did. I really did. But

1:42:21 Speaker 26: I have to say it was the right decision.

1:42:24 Speaker 2: Yeah.

1:42:24 Speaker 26: Yeah, I have never I've never felt like the desire

1:42:30 Speaker 26: to go back to teaching.

1:42:32 Speaker 36: Yeah.

1:42:32 Speaker 26: I think that it was really really good for the time.

1:42:35 Speaker 26: You know, it was a good a good season. I

1:42:38 Speaker 26: learned a lot and there's actually weirdly a lot of

1:42:40 Speaker 26: overlap between managing a classroom and managing your business and

1:42:43 Speaker 26: also like teaching, standing in front of a class, teaching

1:42:47 Speaker 26: and engaging students, and also performing on stage and engaging

1:42:51 Speaker 26: an audience. It's weirdly similar. So like, I'm very, very

1:42:54 Speaker 26: grateful for my teaching.

1:42:56 Speaker 11: Oh yeah, no, that makes sense. Yeah, that totally makes sense.

1:42:59 Speaker 11: You ever hear from any of your students who have

1:43:01 Speaker 11: followed your your music career.

1:43:03 Speaker 26: So they some of them do follow me in you know,

1:43:06 Speaker 26: social media, and they'll like like a post. And I

1:43:09 Speaker 26: have a student who will sometimes come when I play

1:43:11 Speaker 26: in Massachusetts. He'll come sometimes come to my shows, which

1:43:13 Speaker 26: is always really fun.

1:43:14 Speaker 11: That's cool. That's very cool. Yeah, yeah, that's excellent. Well,

1:43:19 Speaker 11: so we uh will begin to wrap up in a moment,

1:43:21 Speaker 11: but we'll probably play studio track.

1:43:26 Speaker 26: Whoops, I knew that was coming.

1:43:29 Speaker 17: It's usually me so thank you.

1:43:32 Speaker 11: Jenny and I are both clutches, so where the last

1:43:35 Speaker 11: people will ever judge you for dropping.

1:43:37 Speaker 17: Something to hold onto anything for two days?

1:43:41 Speaker 26: Lately, I feel like my clumsiness is getting worse and

1:43:43 Speaker 26: it might just be the like I said, the aftermaths

1:43:46 Speaker 26: of the trip and not planning enough time to transition.

1:43:49 Speaker 17: To blame it on the humidity week. Maybe it's just

1:43:51 Speaker 17: you know, yeah, it got to us problem.

1:43:53 Speaker 26: I am actually writing a song. It's like, well, I

1:43:56 Speaker 26: only have this so far.

1:43:58 Speaker 23: It's like I can a little clumsy, chipping over my

1:44:02 Speaker 23: own two feet.

1:44:03 Speaker 26: People think I'm funny, but I'm just trying to get by.

1:44:08 Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm a little.

1:44:09 Speaker 26: Clumsy something something.

1:44:11 Speaker 23: But the clumsiest thing that I ever did.

1:44:15 Speaker 26: Was falling for you.

1:44:18 Speaker 2: For you, I.

1:44:21 Speaker 15: Wait to hear it.

1:44:22 Speaker 26: Maybe you can help me write the rest.

1:44:26 Speaker 11: There you go?

1:44:27 Speaker 2: Cool?

1:44:28 Speaker 11: What what what should we play to close the show?

1:44:31 Speaker 11: What's a studio track we should play?

1:44:33 Speaker 26: Either just because I can or Grateful? Depends if you

1:44:35 Speaker 26: want to play like a rocker track or a dreamy

1:44:38 Speaker 26: grateful track.

1:44:39 Speaker 11: Was Grateful the one that you said had some of

1:44:41 Speaker 11: your electric guitar playing in it.

1:44:42 Speaker 26: No, I don't think you have that song. I don't

1:44:45 Speaker 26: know if I ever sent that. Well, it's called Starlights.

1:44:49 Speaker 26: That was the one I recorded entirely in my home studio.

1:44:52 Speaker 26: I don't know if you have that one.

1:44:53 Speaker 11: Is it online? It is, because if it's online, I

1:44:56 Speaker 11: can find it.

1:44:57 Speaker 26: Oh, I found it okay, and now people in the

1:44:59 Speaker 26: comments can tell you what they think of this was.

1:45:01 Speaker 26: This was before I even had logic pro. I produced

1:45:04 Speaker 26: this on Oh was it garage band?

1:45:11 Speaker 11: At This will be very interesting. Okay, cool? Cool and
