Enthusiasm is Contagious (Ryan Clark of Hookworm Records)

Connecting with others in the music community can be a struggle. Ryan Clark is the founder of Hookworm Records. In this interview we discuss how his passion for live music stemmed from being rebellious during a church mission and how his skills as a writer and English teacher led to a music blog and a fictional novel based on the Arizona music community. We also dive into his latest venture, Hookworm Records, which curates and releases original recorded music on vinyl compilations.
