The Music Between The Notes With Eric Everett

Send us Fan MailSomebody else’s perspective can irritate you, confuse you, or unlock a new idea you never could’ve reached alone. AWALL starts from that premise and then follows it straight into music, where respecting differences isn’t just a value, it’s the whole mechanism behind a great jam. Eric Everett joins us to talk about the moments that shaped him: drumming on a school desk after hearing “Louie Louie,” falling hard for rock show energy, and eventually realizing that the most exciting playing happens when you stop clinging to the script.We dig into Rhythm Royale, a high trust improv format that throws musicians together with real-time prompts like emotion and key. From there we get practical about musicianship: why drums are about syncing four limbs, why guitar is about finding your pocket in harmony, and why learning to sing is partly learning to hear your own voice without flinching. Eric also shares how community grows in real places, like the open jams he helps run at Clarksville Commons, where anyone can jump in, play, and belong for a night.Then things get fun and weird in the best way: a “Garden Party” cocktail breakdown, a time-bending message to a younger self about friends and family, and a rapid-fire round that somehow lands on Superman, honey, roulette, and a dream of deep electronic grimy funk. If you care about music improvisation, jam sessions, the Baltimore music scene, and building a creative community that actually lasts, hit play, then subscribe, share with a musician friend, and leave a review. What’s the first rule you’d set for your dream jam?Support the showListen to all episodes here: https://respectingperspectives.comWatch all episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/AwallArtistALL AWALLARTIST SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS:SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/39sD9CWOPR3FpdzHrJK80w?si=o8wu4ydBSdG--xlmG3566QAPPLE MUSIC: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/awallartist/1519132019  SOUNDCLOUD: https://soundcloud.com/awallartist IG: https://www.instagram.com/awallartist  FB: https://www.facebook.com/AWALLARTIST X: https://x.com/awall_artistTIKTOK: https://tiktok.com/@awallartist
