JER joins The Austin Young Show to talk about what it's like being an artist right now, the struggles facing bands and musicians, and the reality of trying to build a life around music. We get into Supernova Ska Festival, JER's experience as an educator, why music education matters, and the current political climate — including the absolutely bizarre situation where brass instruments seem to have become public enemy number one. It's a conversation about music, education, politics, and the challenges artists are dealing with right now, with a little ska thrown in for good measure.
