Taking Atlantic City by storm, John Demko (Bass/Vocal) and Joe Straczynski (Saxophone) have pioneered their own twist on Jamband music- The WORLD'S Heaviest Jamband!
John and Joe went to college together and have traditionally played for personal fulfillment. We cover a roller-coaster of topics in this episode including having realistic goals, the value of music, the insane ground-up promotion process, if musician compensation is fair, and of course, who among them smells the worse!
Here are the highlights of my conversation with John and Joe:
Their favorite pieces of equipment and those they simply can't do without (12:19)
Their ultimate long term goals and where they see themselves in the future (18:30)
What music means to them and how important this is in each of their lives (21:10)
Lessons they learned in the past which resonated with them the most (25:15)
Their thoughts about Spotify and other free streaming sites and if musicians are really getting what they deserve (28:30).
Jam on, dudes.
