Society & Culture
In this episode of The Liberal Soul, I speak with musician, sound engineer, and my cousin Zach Gerber. Zach lives in Ontario and has been involved professionally in music for the last decade. Zach is a touring musician with the Canadian band Walk Off The Earth, so he has lots of great stories about festivals and concerts. Music being my first love, I wanted to have an episode talking to Zach about music and how it has shaped our lives. Some of the things we talk about are: - Zach's beginnings in music and sound engineering - Some of the great stories Zach has from interacting with other big name acts at festivals - Our first memories of music, and music's ability as truth telling - The universalization of music and how it becomes circular with appreciation and inspiration - What music has had the deepest impact on our lives - Music as good and necessary for the misfits of the world - Lots and talk about pop punk bands and especially Jimmy Eat World - And finally, what role music plays now in our lives that we are a little older.
