Tamalpais across the Bay from San Francisco.Fresh off her releasing her debut album, Wine on Venus, and her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, rising Nashville star and Gibson Guitar endorsed phenom, Grace Bowers (Grace Bowers & The Hodge Podge), chats about how she was influenced by BB King and her humble rise to prominence -  from playing in her bedroom to appearing with Dolly Parton and Tyler Childers -  and explains why she is not a prodigy!  Demonstrating she has a mind and soul beyond her 18 years of age, Grace expresses what drives her -  a profound hope and passion that her music makes people feel something - whether it makes them dance or feel an emotion. Super-soulful, Lech Wierzynski, leader of The California Honeydrops, who like Grace Bowers, returned to his Bay Area roots performing at Sound Summit - the band's first stop on their national tour promoting its new album, Keep on Diggin' -  discusses the band's improvisational influences, the role of Spotify in the new music industry landscape, and the impact of the mentors who shaped his trumpet skills, and provides a peek into his iPod sourcing the playlist for the band's touring road trips, introducing listeners to an array of obscure, delightful music to add to their own playlists. Multi-talented James Wallace - aka, Skyway Man, delves into the eclectic inspirations of his music, originally sourced from his random discovery of mysterious letters in an abandoned motorcycle shop in North Carolina, filled with esoteric and UFO-related content, touching on the brotherhood of aliens and ascension to a fourth dimension. Wallace shares how his  passion for storytelling through song remains unwavering, providing a glimpse into the mind of Skyway Man and an example of the resilience and creativity that drives artists to keep sharing their gifts with the world.CreditsSweet Little AngelPerformed by B.B.
