Scott Low

Scott Low comes on the podcast this week and talks about his take on songwriting. Scott, a true scholar of music, takes a deep dive on not just how he has evolved with various genres of music over the decades, but he also goes into how popular music has evolved over the last century. He is an avid fisherman and also has insights how songwriting and fishing have many similarities. He talks about how experience hones the songwriter. As Scott says at one point, "in order to convey feeling to the audience, you have to go through the sh*t" Scott has a new album out in 2024, "The Appalachian Blues" full of his original blues songs beautifully executed with slide on the resonator. It's raw emotion from the heart. Enjoy this one and check out Scott at these places... https://www.instagram.com/scottlowsongs/ https://scottlow.bandcamp.com/music https://www.tiktok.com/@scottlowsongs

Jon Nolan

Jon Nolan, one of the co-frontmen of Say Zuzu, is here to kick off season two of Pursuing the Muse. Jon saw Say Zuzu rise on the 90's alt rock/country scene. In 2003 the band broke up and went their separate ways. Jon put out a few records as a solo artist. In 2019 New West Records approached the band about getting back together. And they did to great results with one of the best albums os 2023, "No Time To Lose". Jon gives amazing insights to the process of creating songs and I can't think of a better discussion to begin season two.

We've made it to the end of season one of Pursuing the Muse. I invited Terry Anderson back on to help wrap things up. The timing was great because Terry has a new record out now, Got to Be Strong! It's so good! Get it at the Bandcamp link below. This season has been a treat for me with all the insights I've gained from some of the best songwriters out there today. And I encourage you, the listener, to do your own song creation if you have even the slightest inkling., the tiniest song idea in your head. We are all here to honor the creative impulses inside. One day maybe I'll be interviewing you on Pursuing the Muse!
