Aside from the talents it takes just to build a track, you have to have all of the elements all artists need including a way to make it compelling live. Because Rex Hudson loves music so much, he does so and then some. His brand of electronic music is catchy but not sugary and his live sets are fun and they are on another level. rexhudson.bandcamp.com--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/self-released-songs/support

Songwriters are essential if you're starting a music project. Over time you'll notice that most bands are driven by one person's vision. Ask any record producer and they'll tell you that the key to a good song begins with great songwriting. Over the years we've gotten to know Sergio Trevino through his band Buxton. We've relished in his side project Guess Genes with Case DeMaster of Get A Life and we've adored his project Ancient Cat Society with Austin Sepulvado of Buxton and Hailey Lynch of Dollie Barnes. We sat down with him to discuss how he became a musician, how he writes songs and when we can expect a new album from Ancient Cat Society. As a bonus, he reveals a new project, Rodeo Art coming soon.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/self-released-songs/support

Few people are the type to get up and do anything. In a sea of people who are lethargic, those who go and learn, those who aren't afraid to ask and those who are willing to roll the dice typically get rewarded. Derek Rathbun is such a person. Not yet 21, Rathbun has toured the Europe and North America with his band Substance, he's shot portraits of Julian Casablancas, Kero Kero Bonito and Angel Du$t to name a few and he's created videos and flyers for multiple projects. But that's not all as he's also released his own music, booked his own tours, created his own scene and booked and promoted shows for touring acts. In a short time he's proved that he's not just a musician with DIY ethic, he's a one man music machine.
