“MOON SHOT” is my newest single. It's the second of my four new singles that I'm releasing one per month. Last month's release was “Rough Rider”. With “Moon Shot” I went back to my Jazz Rock Fusion roots, the music that I loved and began playing in the 1970s. Fusion combines the power of Rock with the complexity and improvisation of Jazz. The track has been called “Firey, Passionate, Smokin!”“Moon Shot” features a Special Guest - Mark Lettieri, the 5x Grammy winning guitarist who plays with Snarky Puppy, The Fearless Flyers and his own band. Mark contributed a fantastic guitar solo to the track.Click here for all links.Click here for the Official Video.---------------------------------------------The Follow Your Dream Podcast:Top 1% of all podcasts with Listeners in 200 countries!For more information and other episodes of the podcast click here. To subscribe to the podcast click here.To subscribe to our weekly Follow Your Dream Podcast email click here.To Rate and Review the podcast click here.—----------------------------------------ROBERT'S RECENT SINGLES:“ROUGH RIDER” is Robert's latest single.

"You can do whatever you want." In this engaging interview, Lij Shaw sits down with Jason Livermore, co-owner of the Blasting Room studio, to explore Jason's transformative journey from aspiring musician to Grammy-winning producer. They discuss the studio's evolution, the significance of high-quality equipment, and the invaluable experience gained from working with interns. Jason delves into the intricacies of modern mixing techniques, the transition to digital, and the essentials of drum recording and mixing, highlighting the impact of acoustics, MIDI, and automation. Their conversation also covers the joys of learning new instruments and offers practical advice for aspiring engineers looking to thrive in the competitive world of music production. Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.com My guest today is Jason Livermore who got his first snare drum at just three years old and eventually picked up guitar and bass but found his way back to drums, which he loved most. In junior high, he discovered punk rock, with Milo Goes to College as his first vinyl purchase. Jason played in bands throughout high school and college, even recording some of them himself. After college, he realized that recording would be a better path than selling beer for Miller. When ALL opened the Blasting Room in Fort Collins in 1994, Jason jumped at the opportunity and has been a key part of the studio ever since. In 2015, he became co-owner alongside Bill Stevenson, working on about 95% of the albums from the studio, including producing the Latin GRAMMY-winning record Solo D'Lira in 2023. Jason has also played drums for bands like Wretch Like Me, Drag the River, Bill The Welder, Soul City Missionaries, and The Virginia Sisters. Special thanks to Brian Murphree for the introduction!

Join us as we sit down with Fab Morvan of Milli Vanilli and Grammy-Winning Producer Damon Elliott to discuss their groundbreaking collaboration on the reimagined hit "Blame It on the Rain," now the theme song for Netflix's Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. Learn how this iconic track is back at #1 and what it means to both artists. Plus, Damon Elliott (son of Dionne Warwick) grew up on North Elm drive a few doors down from the Menendez Brothers..."I actually knew them [the Menendez brothers]. I lived at 806 North Elm growing up, which is only a block away. And they were 722. I was a tennis player, and you can fact check that, ha. I actually was friends with Erik. But we didn't go to the same school, I went to Hawthorne on Rexford, in Beverly Hills, but they went to private school. My older brother knew Lyle. And they knew my mom [Dionne Warwick]; they used to, actually, they both have been to my house, ate our cookies. I'm not joking. So the whole complete circle of this is just serendipitous. Here we are, right, I linked up with Fab [Morvan, Milli Vanilli], and I just happened to watch "Monsters". And I heard Blame It On The Rain. And I had already covered the song prior, about almost a year, maybe seven, eight months prior to "Monsters"... even before we even knew about "Monsters". I'm literally just pinching myself, because I'm like, wait a minute, the Menendez Brothers "Monsters" put this song back on the map, 30-something years later. I get to talk to Fab and work with him, and do a reggae version, which I've had a lot of success in that island reggae market," - Damon Elliott on The Menendez Brothers and "Blame it on the Rain" Hosted on Acast.

Grammy-winning guitarist and vocalist Warren Haynes (Gov't Mule, Allman Brothers Band) talks with Says Who Sports about his days as a Little League Baseball pitcher, including facing future MLB Hall of Famer Cal Ripken Jr. in an All Star game, the similarities between athletes and musicians when it comes to finding “The Zone” and blocking out noise and crowd to perform at the highest level, and attending New York Knicks and Rangers games at Madison Square Garden with his teenage son. Haynes also discusses the destruction caused by Hurricane Helene to his native Asheville, North Carolina, where much of his family still lives, and talks about the status of his upcoming annual Christmas Jam benefit concert event, which has always taken place in Asheville during the holiday season.  Haynes shares his affinity for and approach to playing improvisational music, his appreciation for the two decades-plus he spent in the Allman Brothers Band and the opportunity former ABB guitarist Dickey Betts gave him to join the band, his almost ‘telepathic' musical connection with original Gov't Mule bassist and co-founder Allen Woody and longtime-and-current Mule drummer Matt Abts, the mark Woody made on music and his continued influence on younger bass players, and how Haynes continues to improve as a musician and bandmate despite already being considered among the greatest guitar players ever.Haynes recalls the first time he met the legendary Willie Nelson and offers insight into Nelson's unique approach to playing guitar, talks about the influence his older brothers had on his musical tastes and exposure as a youngster, the first album he ever bought, and the first concert he ever attended. He also shares his perspective on the seeming dearth of quality rock bands on the scene nowadays and hope for a revival of sorts, his matter-of-fact opinion on finding success in an always-brutal music business, his gratitude for being able to do what he loves for decades, and much more!
