I want to give a big thanks to Marc Malouf. When I was looking for a place to host this podcast, Marc put his hand up and offered his creative space for us to hang. This podcast was recorded at Marc’s personal production suite @ Everland Studios in Sydney. Marc is also a pretty scmick baker and wine enthusiast so he also provided a mean sourdough and some sweet as wine. Thank you man 🙂
The recording ended up going for a good 4 hours. I know that’s along time to sit down and listen in one hit so we’ve broken it up. So this is part 1 of 2.
In part 1 here, the guys discussed a range of topics, from music that is currently inspiring, developing their styles, building their business, how they approach playing with a 2nd or third guitarist or piano player and a bunch of other stuff.
Episode recorded 27/11/2019 @ Everland Studios, Sydney.
