#005 Six Questions With Michael Gilbride

Welcome back to Six Questions With Matty C, a simple short-form interview show from the fine folks at What Am I Making. In each episode I’ll use the same half dozen questions about film or music, each with a five minute discussion limit to learn more from each guest about how the culture we consume shapes the people that we turn into. This week’s guest is Michael Gilbride, an independent musician and the founder of the artist-driven label MAD Records. In this episode, our first musical edition, Michael and I dive deep into the vulnerability of singing to just one other person, and the musical trust that he found early on in his brother. We cover how critical storytelling is to each and every artist, and why that story will always be the center of the connection between an artist and their audience. We talk about the night and the show that made Michael finally understand the rhythms and beauties of New York City, and he shares the surprising album that would be the last record he would give up from his collection. Come join me and Michael Gilbride for six musical questions. Let’s get into it.  Cheers,Matty C Get full access to What Am I Making at whatamimaking.substack.com/subscribe
