My guest on this episode is composer and bassist, Emily Koh.
How does one get seen? A pink resume can help. Cheery color schemes and refreshing marketing help, too. But what really lands is Emily's music- a complex thread of sound that can be as broody as the next complex contemporary, yet somehow always nudges upward as if to say "look, I did that".
Well, Emily, we see what you did there. Come enjoy a conversation that centers on expectations, approval, and creating with your own palate.
