I'm back from a long hiatus It's the 60th Episode and we are talking about dreams, starting a band, writing and tons of other nerdy stuff. I stepped away for a bit trying to figure out what this podcast is for and what I came to is that ultimately its to help artists. So if you are reading this please share it with an artist friend you feel it would benefit. link to vids https://www.youtube.com/@jamescandyland/ link to writings https://jamescandlanddraws.wixsite.com/story/tanuki-hero link to comics https://jamescandlanddraws.wixsite.com/story/comics

This week, Alfie and Fionnán welcome their first guest: artist and songwriter (and Alfie's teenage hero!) Greg Holden. The three lads have an open conversation about Greg's career from Artist to Songwriter and what he stands for in an ever-changing industry. This week, they cover major label budgets, the downfalls of going viral and whether the algorithm hinders music.Greg reminisces about the open music scene in New York and the community that came with it and offers advice on how we can support artists now, including some brutal but loving home truths.Support the podcast on Patreon for ad-free and exclusive bonus episodes.
