Tis Yourself

I am BACK! That is right, season 6 is here!I have missed recording weekly for you all so I brought an amazing guest along! The wonderful Glen Power from The Script is here to talk about how he got into music and the band, the highs and lows of being on the road, shunning fame and of course, losing Mark Sheehan last year. Glen often stayed in the background in the band so it was wonderful to hear his thoughts, his gratitude, his fears and his feelings on so many topics. This is one that #TheScriptFamily will love but even those who are not huge fans.Please do share, rate, review, and comment and make sure to follow The Tis Yourself podcast wherever you get your podcasts and on social media.
