Bear McCreary on Scoring The Walking Dead & Making Heavy Music

On this episode of The David Ellefson Show, David and cohost Joshua Toomey welcome acclaimed composer and musician Bear McCreary to discuss his new album, The Singularity: Ekleipsis. Bear talks about how Back to the Future inspired his love of film scoring, his creative process on projects like The Walking Dead, and his approach to using music to create emotion. The guys also dive into the music business, the differences between scoring and making music as an artist, and the freedom of creating something personal. The episode wraps with plenty of praise for Bear’s brother Brendan McCreary, whose vocals and musical contributions are a huge part of The Singularity.Join the Patreon for early access to episodes and Q and A's with the hosts www.patreon.com/tdesFor David Ellefson Stage Played Basses and Merch www.ellefsonemporium.comFollow David on Social Medialinktr.ee/davidellefsonFollow Joshua on Social Medialinktr.ee/talktoomeypodcast #megadeth #bassplayer #thrash #bigfour
