EP 22 - Evolving Your Instrument, Finding Your Voice (w/ Dr. Max Gaertner)
How do you find a unique voice when thousands of other people are trying to do the same thing on your instrument? It’s a challenge we all take on as musicians, and few master the assignment. It’s safe to say Max is one of those masters. I’m honored to have my first international guest on the show to break down the creative journey!
