    Ep. 20 | Tanir Morrison: Get Out of the City and Into Your Sound

    In this episode, T sits down with Nashville-based producer, engineer, and multi-instrumentalist Tanir Morrison. They discuss his upbringing in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, his early years playing drums, his time at Berklee College of Music, and how the pandemic landed him in Kingston Springs, Tennessee, and his plans for 2026. Tanir co-owns and operates Brunjo Music Productions, a studio tucked in the woods just outside of Nashville in Kingston Springs. He studied Music Production & Engineering and Songwriting at Berklee College of Music in Boston, completing what should have been a five-year program in four. After getting stranded in Nashville during COVID, he and his partners spent over a year renovating the space from the ground up before eventually investing in an Audient 8024 console that has become the centerpiece of their sound.Over the past several years, Brunjo has grown from a pandemic passion project into a full-service production company, working across multiple albums and projects simultaneously. Most recently, Tanir produced and engineered Pastures, the latest album from long-time collaborator Natalie Del Carmen, a live-tracked Americana record that represents some of his most personal and committed work to date. He also discusses a deeply moving experience playing live music for inmates at Parchment Penitentiary in Mississippi, and an upcoming recording project connected to that visit.

    In this episode, Bri sits down with Nashville singer-songwriter Ava Earnhart for an honest, vulnerable conversation about her childhood, her artistry, and the experiences that shaped her voice. Raised in Arkansas and spending over five years in foster care before being adopted at age nine, Ava shares how instability, trauma, and survival shaped her early years—and how music became the first place she ever felt safe. They discuss her introduction to singing through nursing homes, her first gigs at seventeen, learning guitar by feel, and the teachers and mentors who helped her transition into classical vocal training and music studies. Ava reflects on the artists who influenced her—Patsy Cline, Wynonna Judd, Demi Lovato, Kenny Rogers, Adele—and how each shaped the emotional honesty in her sound. The episode also explores Ava’s experience writing about trauma, the tension between vulnerability and audience expectations, and the healing she’s found using music to advocate for foster and adoptive families. She and Bri talk about creativity, authenticity, comparison, body image, cultural identity, and navigating Nashville as a young woman in the country/Americana space. Ava shares openly about surviving abuse, learning to rebuild her confidence, and discovering her voice—both artistically and personally—on her own terms.
