Hey, Professor Tanksley!

In this episode, we dive deep into the world of musical education with Dr. Michael Tanksley (Dami's fella!), professor of History of Rock and Pop at St. Joseph's University. Through our conversation, we explore the unique paths musicians can take, the vital role of music history in shaping both Black culture and American culture, and how our earliest music memories often influence career choices. Whether you're a musician, educator, or a lover of music, this episode will give you a unique perspective on how understanding the past can shape the future of music.Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x85M1D4Clh671xKWgTf3f?si=hN-bVBklQTSIb2SM41QALASocial Media Twitter - @madmusicpodcastInstagram: @madmusicpodcastTiktok: @madmusicpodcastLinktree: linktr.ee/madmusicpodcastEmail: [email protected]: Mikala (Instagram: omegafattyassid09), Ama (Instagram: amaziva), Dami (Instagram: afrodamiac)Producers: Mikala, Ama, and Dami Editor: Mikala
