Music as Creative Political Protest
RICK MAYOCK & DIANE HUBKA
Welcome and thank you for joining us! Each episode we discuss a creative approach to life’s challenges. Today, we’ll listen to musician song writers Rick Mayock and Diane Hubka and discuss the birth of a song, finding work/art balance, music as political protest and constantly evolving.

He was an integral part of the Venice Beach music scene of the 70's and 80's. He’s founder and lead vocalist/guitarist of the band East of Lincoln, playing an eclectic blend of original rock, blues, R & B, and urban acoustic music.
