Brandon has been in LA for a while now but is heading for greener pastures in Austin, Texas with his band The Blood Moon Howlers to record their new record and have a central home base to tour from thebloodmoonhowlers.com @thebloodmoonhowlers. He’s also in the psychedelic funk band Paracosmic @paracosmicfunk, both bands I highly recommend checking out!

Gig Stories with Music People

A podcast for musicians, music lovers, and anyone who loves a good story! In-depth discussions about the music industry & gig life with a diverse variety of musicians & creatives

Does the name not speak for itself? Need more? Ok.
After 10+ years based in Los Angeles working as a professional musician, I've accumulated a great number of stories. I know that I'm not alone in this regard, so my hope is to shed light on the best stories from my musician friends & colleagues from around the world. Along the way I also hope to learn about each guests journey through this crazy life & industry, and ideally to offer poignant music (& life) advice to anyone listening, whether you're a seasoned musician, newbie, hobbyist, or just a... civilian? Most of my guests will either be working professional musicians or weekend warriors, but I also plan to expand over time to hear different perspectives from related "gig life" fields. If there's someone you want to hear from or some way I can make this better, let me know! CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is appreciated!
