from The Colin McEnroe Show · host Connecticut Public Radio

This hour we explore the challenges musicians face as they seek band harmony, and discuss what makes them succeed – or fail – together. GUESTS: Steven Hyden: Cultural critic at UPROXX and the author of several books on rock music, most recently Long Road: Pearl Jam and the Soundtrack of a Generation Nerissa Nields: Singer-songwriter, guitarist, and founding member of The Nields Jim Chapdelaine: Guitarist, producer, Emmy Award-winning composer, recording engineer, and an adjunct professor at the University of Hartford School of Music Jay Russell: Singer, songwriter, and guitarist from Connecticut whose current band is The Split Coils; former member of Hot Rod Circuit Heather Ferguson: Psychotherapist, psychoanalyst, and clinical supervisor in New York City, and a member of the Music Industry Therapist Collective Join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter.
