This week on the Arts to Hearts Podcast we have Hanna Inaiáh as our guest. This episode will especially pique your interest if you are intrigued by AI as our guest shares her journey of using artificial intelligence (AI) in her work, including creating stunning images and designs. Hanna is a Brazilian digital artist and surface designer who creates designs that can be applied to home goods, clothing, packaging, and fabric. In this episode, she shares her journey of incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) into her work and how it has allowed her to create stunning and realistic visuals. As an artist, Hanna has worked with brands like Farm Rio, Sig Bergamin, Reserva, and Premiere Vision. The debate surrounding AI is not new. Ever since its advent, people have been skeptical about AI's role in our personal and professional lives. Hanna argues that AI should be seen as a tool that can enhance our creativity and grow our business, rather than something that should be shut down. Reflecting on her own journey with art and AI, Hanna says that using AI tools has had a positive impact on her creativity and has helped her attract new clients. For her, it was experimenting with AI that expanded her creative vision and allowed her to push her own limits. While AI allowed Hanna to see her designs more realistically and make adjustments accordingly, there has been pushback as well where not everyone agrees with Hanna's approach. However, regardless of people's opinions, Hanna has continued to do what she deems best for her art.  Currently, Hanna is exploring the idea of creating a course to teach other designers and artists how they can incorporate AI into their work. So, listen to this week's full podcast to find out more about Hanna's viewpoint on AI and how she managed to use it to her advantage.

This week on our Arts to Hearts podcast, we have three guests who are featured in our book ‘101 Art Book: Floral Edition'. Our host Charuka Arora sits down with Dawn Bouchard, KC Christmas, and Christina Cowan to talk about their creative process, the hardest things they have faced as artists, and their experience of getting published in 101 Art Book. Dawn Bouchard decided to follow her passion after her retirement as a school principal, and now this is what she wants to do all the time. For the past 5 years, she has been painting and experimenting with acrylic paints and soft pastels. KC Christmas is based in South Carolina, and even though is a part-time middle school teacher, her first love is creating things and painting which involves acrylic paint and paper collages. Christina Cowan is from Connecticut, and while she is a social worker, she has been transitioning to a full-time artist. Her work involves oil where she also incorporates collages, poetry, and quotes in order to tell a story. For all three of our guests, the hardest part about being an artist is finding their style and managing the business side of it. This is something that rings true for many others, especially emerging artists, as the initial creative journey is all about finding your voice and how you can make the most out of your work. The creative journey is not all about the challenges, but also the rewards where the entire experience of creating something can be satisfying. It is all about taking inspiration from different elements and then using your art to bring those ideas to life, and for KC, Christina, and Dawn, that is what it's all about! Our book ‘101 Art Book: Floral Edition' has a stunning floral cover by Sonal Nathwani which also makes it a perfect addition to your coffee table. You can find inspiration in floral works by 101 artists and get mesmerized by their reimagination of something so simple yet so alluring; a flower.

Together with American Songwriter, we had the pleasure of interviewing Matt Urmy over Zoom video! The East Nashville-based singer/songwriter Matt Urmy muses on the duality of the human experience today with the release of his new concept album ‘South of the Sky.’ Inspired by Willie Nelson’s two-sided narrative album ‘Phases and Stages,’ Urmy’s ‘South of the Sky’ attempts to explore and celebrate the multi-dimensionality of human life. Early praise for ‘South of the Sky’ has come from American Songwriter who said the music “boldly dives headfirst into the multi-dimensionality of human nature” and NPR Music, who featured early album singles “Raging Hearts” and "Blind" in their New Music Friday playlists. Each song on the album has a mirror image of itself on the opposite side. While Side A single “Helpless Fool,” is a moment of self-introspection, “Family,” on the other end, examines outward interactions and how one's actions and relationships with others can help inspire and ignite change.Also an accomplished entrepreneur, father and author, Urmy was recently featured on The First Act podcast where he spoke about his company Artist Growth, a cloud-based software which helps streamline workflow for music industry professionals. In the episode, Urmy dove into his expertise and perspective on how indie artists can use social media to connect with and grow their audience.Urmy also recently released his first-ever children’s book, Go Ask The Moon, which follows its non-binary protagonist Hoo, as they attempt to discover what makes them unique. As Hoo attempts to find the peace of a good night’s sleep, as well as passion, they come across various creatures of the night who help guide them. The book follows Urmy’s two previous collections of poems, Ghosts In A House (2007) and The Rain In The Bell (2015). More about Matt UrmyBorn in New York City and raised in Nashville, TN, Matt Urmy is a singer/songwriter, poet and entrepreneur. He founded Artist Growth, a cloud-based artist management & record label collaboration platform, which services both Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group as well as artist managers at companies like Red Light Management, Vector Management, C3, Maverick, ROAR and many others. Urmy lives and works in Nashville with his partner Jaime - a pastry chef at popular East Nashville restaurant Lockeland Table - and their two boys, Ezra and Ocean. Matt’s debut album, 2017’s Out Of The Ashes, was a Rolling Stone favorite and compelled them to call Urmy, who dueted with the late John Prine on the album, an Artist To Watch. We want to hear from you!

Songwriting, stolen weed, and growing your career with John Craigie and Matt Urmy. First, John Craigie jumps in to talk about expectations of connections but a couple of things you should know is that John is a songwriter armed with wit and truth. “the lovechild of John Prine and Mitch Hedberg.” describes him perfectly. Recently John released a song with Jack Johnson, “I Wrote Mr. Tamborine Man”. We talk about the power of lyrics and the first line, songwriting, and even types of writing songs. In 2018 his studio album Scarecrow was released and hailed as transparent and truthful which is a constant in his life. Be sure to visit www.johncraigiemusic.com for upcoming tour dates including his #KeepItWarm tour and new music, and follow him at @johncraigie. Matt Urmy talks about his perspective of songwriting, entrepreneurship, and owning your career. When Urmy was four years old his family moved to Nashville, TN, where he lived until college. He graduated with a BA in creative writing from UT, Knoxville, and an MFA in poetry from Spalding University in Louisville, KY. He has also studied traditional healing practices with the indigenous people of New Zealand, the Maori, for nearly 20 years. Aside from publishing two books of poetry (2007 & 2015), Urmy also released his debut album in 2017, Out Of The Ashes, which was produced by the late, legendary, Cowboy Jack Clement. Rolling Stone Country named Urmy as one 10 artists to watch, and The Nashville Scene called it, “…the most fascinating Nashville album of the last decade…” In 2012, Matt founded the groundbreaking software company, Artist Growth, which he ran as CEO until 2018, raising millions in venture financing and forging deals with the most iconic institutions in the music industry. He now serves as Chief Strategy Officer and has clients ranging from Universal Music Group, Vector Management, Red Light Management, Maverick, C3, Qprime, and countless other labels, artists and management companies. So in this episode, we capture what Artist Growth is and where is the platform heading for artists and an industry. The platform really is shaking up the industry and making the creator really take ownership of their career. We take a ride on the failure train and because you’re failing doesn’t mean you’re a failure, but rather it’s a learning experience for success.

When you hear the word musician, the first phrase that usually comes to mind is starving artist. Our guest on this episode wants to change that, by giving musicians the tool to run their music like a business. Matt Urmy is a successful author, musician, and founding CEO of the music software company, Artist Growth. He is anything but a starving artist. Artist Growth is a software program and mobile app that links an artist's entire team and all their touring information with real-time sharing, extreme data security, custom access permissions from any device, for any team of any size. On top of that, they even connect up and coming artists with funding opportunities for growth without a credit check, using future bookings as collateral. As if running Artist Growth wasn't enough, he's also a successful musician with a new album dropping in the fall, a poet and author and a devoted family man.ONE37pm Senior Editor of Culture, Brian Anthony Hernandez sat down with Matt to hear how many failed attempts there were before Artist Growth was a success, the motivation behind his new record and how he prioritizes his family without letting his career suffer.

It’s designed to help you sort your finances, merchandise, royalties and much more, all in one place that’s always available online.

Have you ever thought of a product that you thought would be a good idea, but didn't know how to bring it to market? Well, that's exactly what Matt Urmy did. As an accomplished musician, he saw a need for a product and set out to create it. Never mind that he didn't have any business background, or deep pockets to fund it, or any experience creating mobile apps. He had a vision, sought out the resources he needed, and now he's involved in agreements with labels so big they are household names. How did he do it? He shares some of his experiences on this interview with us.
