The Drummer One Ft. Zack Grooves

Babies and Gentlemen! Podience! We have for you a sharp pivot—perhaps the sharpest so far. In this episode, we string players venture into a vast unknown land: the rhythm section, with the incomparable drummer and content creator @ZackGrooves [https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCW7LtGizqathWM2mUKYAx_g]! Zack helps us discover the magical land of jazz fusion, paradiddles, and testosterone. We throw him some FMKs and he volleys back with gold and leaves with an important message to us all: "...just play cool sh*t!"

The Broadway One

In this episode, we dive deep into the high-stakes, high-stress, and bizarre world of Broadway because Caroline's making her Broadway debut at Schmigadoon! We start by plotting how to get our own show up there — the one where we put mediocre performers next to virtuosos so audiences can really appreciate the difference. Tune in as we explore the tension between the "prestige" of the Great White Way and the gritty reality of being a working musician in the pits. xoxoxo follow us on Instagram and YouTube xoxoxo www.instagram.com/gageconomy [https://www.instagram.com/gageconomy] www.instagram.com/martabagratuni [https://www.instagram.com/martabagratuni] www.instagram.com/caroline.e.cassio [https://www.instagram.com/caroline.e.cassio] www.youtube.com/gageconomy [https://www.i] xoxoxoxo
