Hailing from the Greek island of Crete, Gemma is an electronic, post-rock, band who mix various genres with Greek lyrics. I chat to Apostolis (percussion and lyrics), and Anastasis (bass) about their sound, songwriting, and what their music is all about.

Music On Your Own Terms 148 - Rob Balducci - Transcending A Violet Horizon
Rob Balducci is a guitarist I've been listening to since the early 2000s, participating on his website forum, and downloading his lick of the week mp3s when they came out. Rob joins me in this episode to talk about how he began his professional musical journey, working at Relativity Records when Joe Satriani's Surfing With The Alien was released, and how Joe gave him pointers on the demos that became his first album Balance. We also hear about the gear companies that inspired him early on, many of whom he has had long standing endorsements with, including Ibanez, Dimarzio, and D'Addario. Rob graciously takes us through the track listing of his upcoming album Transcendence, due to be released early next year, that has been inspired by the death of his parents and how he channeled that experience into his music.

In this episode I chat to Ronda Ray, a Dallas/Fort Worth local artist that recorded her first EP in historic Muscle Shoals, and is gearing up to release her latest album early in 2022. Ronda talks about what she has learned from starting at a local open mic night, to becoming a full time gigging musician, with sponsorships, and some great industry relationships. She also talks about some negative experiences that prompted her to become more aware of toxic attitudes, the resources that have helped her in the business side of her career along the way, and finally how to film a DIY music video with a friend who's not afraid to hang out of a moon roof. Stay until the end for an exclusive preview of Ronda's new single, Walking Away, out in a couple of weeks.

Music On Your Own Terms 146 - Kate Schutt - A Grief Casserole
Kate Schutt exemplifies everything this podcast is about, a professional singer and musician, a guitar player with some sweet gear and awesome chops, a life coach that concentrates on mindset and mental health, all wrapped up with an attitude of continuous improvement and one that adapts to constant change. Kate shares her journey of switching from pursuing a literary degree at Harvard, to studying at Berklee and back again, then diving headlong into a music career that has seen her explore the jazz scenes in various cities around north America. We also hear about Kate's TEDx talk on the subject of how we can improve supporting others during times of grief, which draws upon the experience of caring for her late mother while she was going through her last years with terminal cancer. Finally Kate talks about her latest album that was written during and after her mother had passed, both exploring emotions from the experience as well as celebrating her mother's life.

Music On Your Own Terms 145 - Leon Todd/Ragdoll - Guitars, Gear, & Storytime With Uncle dUg
I discovered this week's guest on Youtube whilst searching for videos of one of the amps I own, really appreciating the content he is putting out, as well as our common love for the band Kings X. Leon Todd is a guitar player, Youtuber, and teacher from Perth, Australia, who tours with his band Ragdoll, teaches clinics at guitar festivals, and has a ton of great information on guitar gear, most notably the Fractal Axe FX. We discuss Leon's history, how he has built his Youtube channel, as well as his band's following around the world, including saving for trips to the US, and taking every opportunity no matter the odds they have faced as a band. Finally Leon talks about the old adage of "success is not what you know, but who you know" from his perspective, including how he met his wife, and how he got to hang out and eat dinner with dUg Pinnick from Kings X!

Music On Your Own Terms 141 - Steph Belcher - Take The Money And Run
In this episode I talk to Steph Belcher, owner of When Songs Mean Business, that teaches independent musicians how to manage their finances and formulate a plan for their business. Steph talks about a few different tax filing statuses that artists might have to think about when claiming both income and expenses, across several years, as well as some different categories of partnerships a musician might encounter when working with cowriters and producers. Finally we talk about the role that music has played in Steph's life, from growing up in a musical family including her grandmother that was a professional pianist, writing CD reviews in a local newspaper in her teens, which led to indie music promotion for an early streaming tech company, and also what music has meant to her surrounding life events such as losing her dad to cancer, her wedding, and her children.

Music On Your Own Terms 138 - Alex Krug Combo - Asheville Rebel
Chatting with me this time out is Alex Krug from the Alex Krug Combo, all the way from Ashville, NC. We hear about how early memories of her grandmother playing piano with Alex, shaped her love of music, how she grew up learning guitar and drums, started writing her own music, and played drums in a grunge band as a teen. We also hear about the process of writing and recording with the combo, how her drummer Bill recorded several sessions for Bob Dylan's Blood On The Tracks album, Alex's thoughts on prejudice in the music scene, and finally the challenges she's experienced over the course of the pandemic as a gigging musician.

We head back to Greece this episode for a chat with and incredible session guitarist, Fotis Delinikolas, who, after being ridiculously busy touring with various bands and pop singers, has finally had the time during Covid, to record a solo instrumental album, which by the way, seriously rips! Fotis talks about his musical upbringing, his career with two of Greece's most well known singers, touring and recording with a band signed to Sony Music, and now working with my good friend Ria, to promote his first solo release, Alma. We also take another trip down the guitar gear rabbit hole.....because, I tend to do that, Fotis gives his tips on how someone might go about becoming a session musician, and finally he talks about which guitar he might choose if he was offered an endorsement deal.

Music On Your Own Terms 133 - Cas Weinbren - The Architecture Of A Career In Music
In this episode I chat to New York based keyboard player and producer Cas Weinbren of See See Beats. Cas talks about his musical upbringing, becoming trained in classical and jazz on the piano, and then diving head first into the music industry to take any opportunity that has come his way. We also learn about Cas' love of architecture and project management, and how he invests in real estate and construction projects, as well as using those project management skills to apply to his music career, whether that is in the recording studio producing music with hip hop artists or creating music for sync licensing opportunities. Finally we hear how Cas is creating new opportunities for older or more obscure musicians from the past to be discovered by new audiences with the help of sampling, as well as how he feels there is a distinct lack of transparency with streaming royalties and sync royalties alike.

Music On Your Own Terms 132 - Charlie PS - Ghosts, Tattoos, & Alt Rock
This episode I talk to alt-rock singer-songwriter Charlie PS, from Vancouver, Canada. She talks about how her dad encouraged her love of music from a young age, coincidentally when they lived in the UK, the move to Canada, graduating music college, as well as the influences that have shaped her sound. We learn about the highs of 2019 where Charlie played a run of memorable shows and festivals, to the lows of COVID, which left Charlie uninspired and at a low point with her mental health. Charlie goes on to discuss the events that turned this low point around, to the positive outlook she has now, and her various inspirations for upcoming music and collaborations, including some with her boyfriend Johnny, himself a musician. Finally Charlie regales us with the story of how she got a tattoo of a radio station logo, to have a shot of winning a large sum of money that she hoped to put towards her music career.
