POPULARITY
For this episode, I have a chat with Singer Songwriter, Jack Droppers. Jack has been in a band with his best friends for almost a decade, and he wouldn't want it any other way. I loved where this conversation went. From sharing our mutual connection to Orlando, to finding the hidden little things that we incorporate into our work, and also celebrating the fun and quirky methods that we have in order to chase down that great idea.Jack has really great insights when it comes to creative work. His music is really in touch with his personal memories and emotions, and also inspires listeners to ultimately celebrate life despite all of its imperfections. He understands the value of art, and also has a deep desire in expressing that the act of creating is just as important as the finished product.I can't help but to smile when thinking about how serendipitous this conversation was. To start the chat with me sharing a childhood photo wearing an Orlando Magic jersey (well before I've ever lived in Orlando), to learning how big of a basketball fan Jack is, particularly the Orlando Magic, and to top it off, the conversation about creativity was focused on finding the little MAGICAL moments to incorporate into our art. I mean, cmon!The band Jack Droppers and the Best Intentions is in the process of writing and recording their next album. Their latest album "Scooter" won the WYCE "Alternative Album of the Year" in 2024 and "Dad Rock" won the WYCE "Rock Album of the Year" in 2023Enjoy!About this Podcast : Craft Talk is a collection of interviews with people of different disciplines ranging from creativity, business, and lifestyle.

WYCE's Community Connection (*conversations concerning issues of importance in West Michigan)
We spoke with Derek Reed, Co-Founder of Rockford's Rotary Rocks for ShelterBox, about this years music festival that was held in downtown Rockford. Rotary Rocks held their 2nd annual event on August 22, 2023 at Garden Club Park. The evening featured music from Jack Droppers and the Best Intentions, Low Phase, and Roosevelt Diggs. Fan favorite Roosevelt Diggs won the band competition by garnering the highest number of "votes" via donations for the night. But the big winner was ShelterBox, an international disaster-relief organization. The event raised over $3,100. Online: Rotary Rocks
Jack Droppers is the lead guitarist and lead singer for the Grand Rapids, Michigan based Americana/Indie Rock band "Jack Droppers and The Best Intentions." Jack started out playing original punk rock music with his buddies in junior high until he was introduced to Bruce Springstein. He then found out that his Dad was a big fan of the Boss and he began gravitating towards music with a story. Fast forward to 2021, when Jack became a father and issued his third LP, "Dad Rock". Check them out!
