"And then once you get into the hang of writing music about things you're interested in, maybe you'll get to the point where you do wanna share it with other people and then they'll give you positive feedback because the community is great and then you'll wanna continue. And so starting by writing music for yourself about things you enjoy with an open mind I think can snowball into the wizard rock career that you have always dreamed of." - Lee of Weatherby See the transcript at https://wzrdradiopod.com/ Join the magical Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/WZRDRadioPod
