We have a banger of an episode this week with friend and fellow bandmate Marisa Saltzgiver stopping by the studio!
A certified Drumming Extraordinaire, Marisa plays drums AND bass in our band The Roommates. We get the scoop on Marisa’s musical background and influences, taking it back to where it all started for her - from being a Hillary Duff stan to learning “Swing Swing” by All American Rejects on a full kit in High School that catalyzed her passion for playing drums.
We talk about her childhood in general, growing up in small town Illinois - being queer and how she handled that, growing up in the Catholic church, and how she made her way to Texas after high school and found different bands to play in through Craigslist (WHAAAAT!???!?).
Then to cap things off by Marisa sharing some of her experiences with psychedelic plant medicine, more specifically the time she met “God” during a DMT trip (this gets so good, yall).
Other topics we cover: early 2000 Christian Metal Band phase, POGs, creating healthy habits, Marsia pursing her Bachelor’s degree, and more!
Come along and join the ride!
