Interview on Music Convergence Podcast

We recently sat down with our good friend and musical comrade Mysha Caruso and spoke about our new album, All is Song, as well as what music provides for us all. Mysha is an amazing artist in his own right and has a particularly interesting insight into the creative process as well as the benefits of music for our brains and emotional wellness. His questions were deeply insightful and we had a wonderful time talking with him on his Music Convergence Podcast!

If you want to hear the full interview you can sign up for free on Patreon or listen on Spotify. It's a really fun conversation and we hope you'll give it a listen!
