Time: ~33 min. It's Episode 78! Live shows are booming and indie buzz is real.

I've got your music history with a few classics, the Marketing Tip keeps it real (don’t chase trends, build fans), and we end with some good news for your heart: art really does help you breathe easier. Tune in and support your local scene.
