This cat has played on and produced everything from Taylor Swift to Megadeth—talk about a wide spectrum of skill sets!We’re diving deep into his philosophy on session playing and what it really means to serve the composition. Dann drops serious wisdom on how to stop overplaying so your parts don't get muted, the very real danger of "demoitis," and what it takes to be a "casting director" when you're producing a record. We also talk about his brand new instrumental solo album, where he got back to his roots and wove incredible orchestral arrangements right into his guitar solos.If you want to elevate your session playing or understand the magic of arrangement and production, you need to hear this episode.Get 30% off your first year of DistroKid by going here: http://distrokid.com/vip/corywongVisit Dann Huff: https://www.instagram.com/dannhuffHit us up: [email protected] Cory: https://www.corywongmusic.comVisit Premier Guitar: http://premierguitar.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/wongnotespodIG: https://www.instagram.com/wongnotespodProduced by Jason Shadrick and Cory WongPresented by DistroKid
