Jessica Boudreaux

Jessica Boudreaux is a songwriter, guitarist and producer from Portland, Oregon. Though best known for her band Summer Cannibals, Jessica has recently released a solo EP entitled I Think My Heart Loves To Break that she self produced over the past two years, in which she not only endured an involuntary break in touring, she was also diagnosed with breast cancer.  In this episode, Joe and Jessica discuss her response to her diagnosis, the massive change it brought to her life and how she kept herself from being lost in the illness.   She shares how her perspective on touring has changed,  how making the new record served as a life raft and why making a "pop"  record has always been an interesting challenge to her.  We hear a couple tunes from I Think My Heart Loves To Break, out now.https://jessicaboudreaux.bandcamp.com/Use Code Fret10 for a free month of Music Production Suite Pro and a 10% discount on all other software.   visit https://www.izotope.com/en/lp/ruinous.html @thetourstories Mentioned in this episode:IzotopeDistrokidSchecter Guitars
