#38 - Bevis M. Griffin - Part 11 - Deux Voix Ltd. and Artist Development

Bevis M. Griffin, the "Black Rock Maverick of Texas," is regarded as a pioneer of black rock music for his contributions to the scenes in Austin, New York City, and beyond. In this episode, Bevis reflects on playing what would be his final show at the Continental Club and asking himself a simple question: where did he want to be in ten years? We discuss his curiosity for artist management and development, and how that curiosity sparked the creation of Deux Voix Ltd.—a venture that eventually brought him to work with Saturday’s Radar, Death, and Francis Mbappe. We continue with stories from that chapter, including having dinner with Metallica, along with memories from time spent around the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The conversation wraps with an invitation to Hidalgo, Texas to reconnect with Living Colour while they were on tour with Aerosmith, and a question that would change the trajectory of Bevis' career.  Sampled Songs: "Debtor's Prism" - The Paradigm and "Fool In Your Eyes" - Banzai Kik
