Show notes

When Gary Hoey picked up his first guitar, little did he know how he'd leave his mark on the world of rock. In our latest episode, Gary takes us on a nostalgic trip, recounting his transition from band life to forging a successful solo career, reminding us that the road to musical mastery is as twisted as a guitar solo (but just as exhilarating).

We share the lesson of a musician's son whose two-year program trumped a four-year degree, a testament to the idea that sometimes, less is more. Our conversation wanders through the importance of self-reliance in the music industry, and deliberating on the balance between technique and avoiding injury.

Listen as we share a chord of truth about the eternal cycle of refining one's artistry and how the guitar can be both a companion and a muse in the rock and roll life we live and love.
