This week on the pod we check in on local bandleader George Woods of Voodoo Logic. If you have spent any time in the Coastal Bend, you have definitely had the opportunity to see Voodoo Logic live. A tight, punchy rock band with stellar female vocals and hooks galore! In this episode, we dive into what it's been like for a local band to survive in a pandemic, hear about their new release coming up, and what it's been like to carve a notch for yourself as an original band in the Coastal Bend.

On this week's pod, we have drummer Conner Church. Conner has been a player in the Texas Music scene for the past few years, and after graduating from UNT this past year, decided to make the move to Austin to further his career as a working musician. In this pod, we talk about what it's like to complete music school, while touring on the weekends, the country music scene in Texas, and of course, his work on the latest Kinsmen EP. Join us this week as we take a dive into what it's like to wear many hats while following your dreams.

Every once in a while, the perfect storm of heritage, talent and drive converge on a musician, such is the case with Jose, guitarist and composer of the band San Juan Underground...(among many others). Jose has spent time honing his craft, and cutting his teeth in one of the most musically competitive places on earth: Puerto Rico. In this episode, Jose talks about his journey from Bayamon to Corpus Christi by way of Florida also touching on influences, gear and how, in PR, you bring your A game, or your last gig may really be, your LAST gig! Sit back, pop a bottle, and enjoy this week's episode of The Bandemic Podcast!

On this week's episode, we sit down with Daniel Benavides, guitarist for the band Fall. If you haven't heard of the band, take a moment and go give a listen to their latest single "Longing Spirits."

Go ahead, we'll wait...

In a city, home to hundreds of metal bands, Fall stands among the finest. Riff architects that bring every bit of precision live as well as in the studio. Daniel takes us through practice routines, tone shaping and songwriting to help us see the details below the crushing sonics of Corpus Christi's Fall.

This week we take a trip out East, to the land where every gas station attendant, waitress, and bus boy carries around talent in spades; because, when you're in Nashville, being beyond talented is just expected. Artist Austin Skinner walks us through his journey from South Texas to Nashvegas, and gives us a clear look into the level of proficiency just about everyone has. From touring sideman, all the way to published songwriter, Austin paints the picture of what it's like to rub shoulders with the future stars of country music. Join us as we take a trip to the land of giants.

In this week's episode of the Bandemic Podcast, Guitarist and Songwriter Nick Garcia walks us through what it's like to walk the line of a professional musician in one of biggest music hubs in America. As much as this week's episode is about triumph, there is still a cautionary tale underneath. Join us this week as we take a deep look at just what it takes to be a professional working musician in Austin Texas, and beyond.

Words that gain a whole new meaning on this week's pod. Bassist, Composer, Audio Engineer and Educator Alex Hernandez dives deep into his past to reveal just how important it is to plan for the future. From his beginnings in middle school band to his teaching methods in the collegiate classroom, Hernandez has always had two things in mind, planning and execution. Join us as we dig deep into what it takes to become not only a prolific musician in the Coastal Bend, but a champion of the arts for the community.
