SM Podcast Ep.21 "Through The Glass" featuring Chris Rider

This week I sit down with the man behind the lens, Chris Rider. Chris is a freelance photographer that has been working with Pennsylvania Musician Magazine since 2018, and is also for hire for portraits or any other photography needs as well. He has a monthly article in PA Musician Magazine titled “Rider’s on the storm” where he showcases local live music. Chris is a staple in the local music scene, and one of the best concert photographers I know. If you want to know what gear he uses to get those perfect shots, or just what photographing musicians means to him, give this one a listen!

SM Podcast Ep.20 "My favorite word is F*ck" with guest Shine Delphi

This week I sit down with the happiest musician I know, Shine Delphi. In my opinion, Shine has a lot to be happy about. His fretboard fluency is remarkable. His original music is some of the best I've ever heard. And, he's just an all around good dude spreading good dude vibes everywhere he goes. Watch your kids on this one, it's got some adult language. Or don't. The choice is yours.

ENJOY!

SM Podcast Ep.19 "Plumber's Crack" w/Dr. Nyce

This week I sit down with a REAL LIFE DOCTOR of music, Dr. Nyce. Zach plays solo piano/vocal gigs in Pennsylvania and is releasing his debut original album later this year. He is also involved in multiple other groups including Katz 22 and a new Beatles Jazz-Style tribute band called Cavern Club Combo.

I got a sneak peek at his original music, and it blew me away. It was an absolute pleasure sitting down with the Dr. for a music related therapy session in this week's episode of the solo musician podcast "Plumber's Crack."

ENJOY!
