The long-awaited episode with the brilliant @alana_macpherson is finally available for you to listen to AND watch 🌟🎷 Links to our Substack and Spotify profiles in bio. We had so much fun recording this interview and talking to Alana! You won’t be disappointed 🧡

Music often speaks for us when words may fail, connecting individuals, both musicians and their audiences, beyond the means of verbal communication. In our newest episode, Alana Macpherson takes us with her on a journey into her a life as a jazz musician/composer, unpacking the balance between practice and letting go of perfectionism, the freedom of improvisation and the journey from the imitation of other artists to finding your very own, unique voice as a musician. Support Alana at https://bandcamp.com/alanamacpherson and her powerful all-girl band @planetyoni, who will be releasing their new single soon!
