Stéphane Schück (The Salt Collective)
from Performance Anxiety · host Marc Shea
Today’s guest may be one of the hardest working guests I’ve ever had. Please welcome, straight from Normandy, France, Stephane Schuck. Stephane talks about the music that inspired him as a kid. It isn’t your standard rock and roll background. Maybe part of that is growing up in France, maybe part is just Stephane’s unique angle on music. He formed a group that eventually came to known as The Salt Collective. But that isn’t his day job. Instead of music, Stephane went into medicine. Both hemispheres of his brain are constantly working! He talks about working with some of his heroes with his own music, changing his band’s name, and what happened when he was diagnosed with leukemia. The Salt Collective has a new album out called A Brief History of Blindness. It features Mike Mills, Aimee Mann, Pat Sansone, and former podcast guests Chris Stamey and Django Haskins (among others). It’s a wonderful album that you can stream in the usual places or buy it on Bandcamp or thesaltcollective.propellersoundrecordings.com. Follow the group @thesaltcollective on Instagram & Facebook. Follow us @PerformanceAnx. Support us through performanceanx.threadless.com or ko-fi.com/performanceanxiety. Now let's get salty with Stephane Schuck on Performance Anxiety on the Pantheon Podcast Network. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
