Episode 877: Austin Music Foundation's "The Next" 2020 - Calliope Musicals, Kydd Jones, Sydney Wright, DAYEATER, Ray Prim, Jai Malano, William Harries Graham and Einar Pedersen

Hello gang! The third year of the Austin Music Foundation's, Artist Development Program, which I am part of, is drawing to a close and it's time to celebrate! The NEXT On Wax and The Next showcase at Antone's are our way to showcase these hard working bands. You can see all of these bands live this Friday, Jan 24th at Antone's in Austin, TX. Tickets available HERE. We’ll also be celebrating the release of ‘The NEXT On Wax’, AMF’s FIRST-EVER vinyl compilation album, recorded at The Bubble with Grammy-nominated Austin producer Frenchie Smith and pressed by the fine folks at Gold Rush Vinyl! ‘The NEXT on Wax’ features new and original singles from our 2019 Artist Development Program artists. These artists are Calliope Musicals, Kydd Jones, DAYEATER, Ray Prim, Sydney Wright, William Harries Graham and Jai Malano. I got to sit down with all of these artists and the album's co-producer, Einar Pedersen and talk about their experiences recording and going through the program and much more! I have had a blast working with and talking to all of these fine artists. To find out more about the Austin Music Foundation go to austinmusicfoundation.org. I hope you enjoy getting to know all of these wonderfully talented folks. I sure have. Let's get down! 

Ciao! -JG
