MyTalkabout and Artists Palooza 07/01 by Peter Marcus | Blog Talk Radio
Last Friday two of our fearless leaders, David Lockhart and Allison Geddie, connected with Peter Marcus on blogtalkradio.com to chat about current projects, future goals, and recent happenings within ArtistsPalooza.
Anticipating the upcoming gastronomical and musical extravaganza known as the Eat Real Festival, Allison and Dave discussed the fantastic and talented musical lineup that ArtistsPalooza has been busy putting together. In case you haven’t heard, the Eat Real Festival is on July 16th and 17th at the Helm’s Bakery District in Culver City and promises to have both epic music and delicious food. It’s going to be amazing.
Carlos Cymerman from Social Co-op also called in on Friday to show his support for ArtistsPalooza and talk about the inspiring effect of being around creative people – essentially, the domino effect of good vibes. Carlos is passionate about helping people live their dream life and sharing the message of ArtistsPalooza.
One of the key and most interesting topics, in my opinion, was the idea that passion, music, art, and dreams are ageless. Regardless if you are a teenager or 90 years old, it is never too late to make music and to find and do what you love. Our July Featured Artist, for example, is a musician named Bob Souza – a 91-year-old accordionist who has been playing his whole life. On the show, Dave talks about Bob Souza’s inspiring story and wonderful music.
The radio show also heard from a New York singer/songwriter/musician - Ollie Boy Lester of The Undigables – who talks about how he started his musical career later in life. Ollie Boy’s message: It’s never too late! Older people have just as much to offer as young people and when it comes to music, age is irrelevant. Music is about passion. Listen to the show to hear Ollie Boy Lester’s new song “One More Love Affair."
Allison Geddie also shared her story and passion for music, talking about how music became something powerful and undeniable when she was 23. When the dream of being a musician seemed beyond reach, Allison realized that music was her passion, her contribution, and it was her purpose to nurture and share the gift with other people. Keeping this in mind, Allison’s work with ArtistsPalooza has been geared toward giving space for people to believe in themselves and to share their art with others. Basically, she works to empower artists to empower the world...
Here is what I got out of the conversation:
Do your thing. Share it with the world. There is no expiration date.
Thanks to Peter Marcus for having us on blogtalkradio! We’ll be back for another episode on July 15th!
