Adaptability is a key component in the music industry. The ability to work with different musicians, styles, and artists of all types is important to ongoing success and growth. There are fewer better examples of adaptable musicians than our guest this week, Felix Snow.
A lifelong musician, Felix has worked with artists like Christina Aguilera, Selena Gomez, Lil Uzi Vert, Gallant, and ton’s more. He is even one of the creators of the chart topping song “Gold” by Kiiara, but it doesn’t stop there. Today Felix is part of the Country Pop-duo 17 Memphis, continuing to showcase his incredible musicianship. Felix joins us to talk about how he approaches music on our new season of The Big Break.
