In this episode of My Music, Graham chats with the wonderfully thoughtful and multi-talented Bethany Weimers — a singer-songwriter, audio drama director, and all-round sound enthusiast. What begins with Graham's confession about a lost wallet quickly blossoms into a rich, heartfelt conversation about creativity, childhood pianos, lost PE classes, motherhood, and the joy (and chaos) of making music in snatched moments.
Bethany shares the story behind her brand new EP “The Story I Breathe”, created between freelance gigs, parenting, and a Help Musicians grant. We dive into her creative process, how sound shapes everything she does, and why playing scales on the piano is her version of mindfulness.
Expect stories about:
🎹 Grandparent-inherited pianos
📚 Bookish distractions and musical daydreams
🧠 The weird overlaps between music, memory, and movement
📝 Her beautiful limited-edition music bundles (including a custom pencil!)
If you love music that comes from the heart — and the real life behind the melodies — this one’s for you.
🎧 Listen now. Then go buy the EP on Bandcamp before it sells out. Bethany insists — once they’re gone, they’re gone. (Well, until the t-shirts and earrings drop…)
