The Secret to Finding Your Sound as a Musician, the Punk Rock Way with Trash N' Privilege

from Chord Progression Podcast: The Gateway to New Rock and Metal Music

There is a great number of younger musicians out there that are struggling to find their style and find their sound. It could be because they are unsure what sound connects with them, could be that their skillset doesn't match up with the style of music they want to create, or they havent found the collection of people to help bring that sound to life.It is something almost every musician goes through, and sometimes it takes a while for artists to find that sound. What if we told you that there is an artist in the punk rock world that fits all 3? Great story for inspiration right?Steve from the California punk rock band Trash N' Privilege joins the Chord Progression Podcast as the band recently released their Flush EP last week. Join us for this punk rock episode as we talk about:- Why Trash N' Privilege went more gritty and dirty with their overall tone of punk rock to create more of a throwback and rough punk rock feel on the new Flush EP.- The positive reverb of the pandemic, where shifting musical focus became forced for the time, but now is fully embraced all across rock and metal.- Songwriting and musical advice for all young musicians out there, to either increase your skillset to match the sound you want to create, or use your internal inspiration to create a sound for yourself within the limits of your skillset.A great episode that is brash, up front, and full of great times.
