In this episode, I sit down with bassist Jeff Picker to talk about the winding road from jazz to roots music, and how his time with Ricky Skaggs became a real-world education in feel, note choice, and serving the song. Jeff shares how he went from New York to Nashville, how that Skaggs connection opened doors at the Opry, and why bluegrass bass is simple in concept but not easy in execution.We also dig into electric country bass and the influence of players like Joe Osborn, including what it means to think about voice leading, “flop” bass, and why subtle choices can be the difference between good and great.

 Today's episode is a rebroadcast of a super fun conversation I had a few years ago. I'm talking to two musicians about how they've made a career in music over the last 15 years. I think their story illustrates what it means to be not just an entrepreneurial musician, but an entrepreneur in general. You'll hear about how they've made plans and pursued ideas, while keeping an open ear to what's going on in the market and the world around them, so they can respond with products and services that meet real needs and opportunities. At points this has led them to make pivots. COVID has been one of these points, but we also talk about how the 2008 financial crisis impacted their work and how they bounced back. Here's my conversation with Barbara and Keith.  The transcript and show notes for this episode can be found at MusicStudioStartup.com/episode176.

Today's guest didn't just enter the music industry — he grew up inside it. He isn't just a Grammy-winning producer or a respected solo artist.

From the elderly couple who inspired "Walking Her Home" to the student facing health struggle that "He's My Son" is about we see how his youth ministry job actually fueled his music. Mark shares why he almost quit and went home before he had his big break and how his heart for adoption led to him adopting 2 girls later in life.

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake has been in the spotlight recently following developments related to his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears and Kevin Federline's controversial memoir. According to multiple entertainment outlets including RadarOnline, Timberlake has come to Spears' defense after Federline made serious accusations against her in his book "You Thought You Knew." Sources close to the NSYNC alum reveal he views Federline's revelations as despicable, particularly given that Spears is currently at a vulnerable point in her life. An insider told RadarOnline that Timberlake "thinks it's despicable that Kevin's hitting her with all these terrible insults and sleazy revelations about their time together while she's at low ebb." The report indicates Timberlake still maintains a soft spot for Spears despite not being especially close these days, with sources claiming "seeing her suffer makes him sad." This sentiment comes as Federline's memoir has dredged up details about Spears' personal life, including allegations about her parenting and a controversial phone call she made to Timberlake the night before her wedding to Federline.On the professional front, Timberlake continues his entertainment ventures. He recently performed "Mirrors" live at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas as part of his concert tour, and he's set to headline the 2025 Lollapalooza South American festivals alongside Olivia Rodrigo and Tool.In business news, Timberlake took a significant financial hit when he sold his hometown Mirimichi Golf Course in Memphis for just five hundred thousand dollars. The course, which he purchased with an investment group in 2007 for eight hundred eighty thousand dollars, required approximately sixteen million dollars in renovations to make it environmentally friendly and aesthetically superior. The course had been recognized by Golfweek as one of the best courses you can play in both 2013 and 2014, but ultimately failed to generate the return on investment Timberlake had anticipated.Musically, 2024 saw the release of his album "Everything I Thought It Was," which featured the single "Selfish" and marked a collaboration with his former NSYNC bandmates and producer Timbaland. The album demonstrated his continued relevance in the music industry nearly two decades into his solo career. His estimated net worth currently stands at one hundred seventy-five million dollars, making him significantly wealthier than his former bandmates.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Send us a textThe room glowed with warm orange light, a full house gathered to celebrate five years of Girls Twiddling Knobs and to witness a bold closing chapter. We brought a live panel to the stage to ask a deceptively simple question: are music technology skills truly crucial for women and gender-diverse artists? What followed was honest, funny, and disarmingly practical—stories about safety in studios, DIY learning, pricing your worth, and the power of choosing collaborators who actually listen.Karen Sutton (Oram Awards) mapped the tough terrain of funding and why mentoring fills the gaps that DIY routes can't always bridge. Rooks, aka Jenny Bulcraig (2% Rising), shared how artists are rejecting microaggressions and confusion in sessions in favor of producers who offer clarity, consent, and better results. afromerm, aka Cecilia Morgan, unpacked how growing technical fluency turns doubt into calm agency on stage, even when met with patronising questions. Glade Marie (Saffron) spoke to intuition, community, and using brand gigs to bankroll creative freedom without apology. Together, we explored how tech skills change careers, why safer spaces are non-negotiable, and how to build sustainable models when institutions look away.We don't pretend the landscape is fair. Arts funding is shaky. Industry gatekeepers still overlook what doesn't fit a KPI. But the path forward is clear: learn the tools that center your voice, set boundaries around money and time, and build the rooms where more of us can thrive. As we prepare a short final season—answering why we're closing and what we've learned—we're archiving the work and passing the torch to the many initiatives pushing this movement forward.If you've ever felt othered in a studio, underpaid for your craft, or unsure how to start charging for your expertise, this conversation is a compass.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.In the rapidly shifting world of pop culture Justin Bieber has surfaced in headlines this week more for his personal life than traditional music drama. Us Weekly and AOL report that Justin is currently “happier than he's been in a long time” and looking comfortable and lowkey while spotted at spas in New York City and out on public outings with his wife Hailey Bieber. The two attended a Knicks game, dined at The Corner Store, and grabbed popcorn at the IPIC movie theater—all in plain sight of fans and paparazzi. Any public speculation about marriage woes is being forcefully rebuffed by those close to the couple insiders tell People that Justin and Hailey are focused on their marriage and “very much in it together,” with friends noting their mutual support and maturity.GQ published a new interview with Hailey in which she candidly described their marriage as something they take “one day at a time,” opening up about existing under intense public scrutiny. Despite skipping the 2025 Grammys for the second year running—fueling the usual internet chatter that maybe he's retreating from the limelight—a recent source shared with People that Hailey loves seeing Justin get back into his “creative process,” especially in the studio creating with friends.Grammys chatter is always intense at this time of year, but the spotlight is on nominations and no confirmed Bieber wins or performances are making waves right now with final voting for 2026 not wrapping up until January according to the Times of India.On the cultural tribute front Justin's impact is still being felt—a Candlelight Tribute concert dedicated to Justin Bieber music is scheduled for November 22 in Los Angeles, confirming his music's continuing influence among fans. Social media has picked up on clips from a YouTube event called “DAY 11” featuring Justin with Hailey and WETHEBAND on November 11 but there's nothing to indicate a secret album drop or surprise music project based on available footage so far.Business-wise there is zero movement on new ventures apart from earlier reported news that Justin exited his streetwear brand Drew House recently as summarized on the Spreaker audio biography series. No new deals or partnerships have surfaced this week according to official channels.The upshot Justin Bieber remains a cultural mainstay with his personal life and relationship still commanding major headlines but no confirmed headline-grabbing music or business bombshells in recent days. Any speculations about a retreat or comeback remain just that—unconfirmed and mostly fan-fueled at this stage.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has been making plenty of headlines in the last few days thanks to a mix of career moves, family moments, and candid responses lighting up social media. The biggest music news is his release of the music video for Speed Demon, the lead track from his new album SWAG II. Shot in striking black and white and directed by longtime collaborator Rory Kramer, the video takes place at the Empire Polo Club—the iconic grounds of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. This location choice is no coincidence, as Justin is set to headline Coachella in 2026, sharing the stage with fellow chart-toppers Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G. Clips from the video show him dancing across the Coachella grounds while his family, including wife Hailey, cheer him on, combining professional triumph with personal warmth as reported by BOB FM and Krush 92.5.Family life is also in the spotlight, with Justin and Hailey sharing affectionate photos and playful Halloween snapshots on Instagram. Hailey posted a series of pictures from their trip to celebrate Kendall Jenner's 30th birthday, including several candid bikini shots that prompted Justin's unfiltered four-word public reply: Oh my fuckin god, as spotted by Elle and UNILAD. The two also dressed up as The Incredibles for Halloween with their one-year-old son Jack, earning a shout-out from Disney and fueling even more love from fans and followers. On November 4, Justin posted his own PDA-filled photo with Hailey, drawing countless likes and comments, as covered by iHeartRadio.Meanwhile, Justin recently admitted in a Halloween livestream that touring still feels daunting and the idea of hitting the road is overwhelming, a sentiment that's resonated across interviews and fan forums as noted by Max FM. While these remarks hint that major touring is not imminent, they underscore his ongoing transition between superstar obligations and family priorities.In business news, while it's Hailey in the headlines due to the blockbuster launch of her Rhode beauty brand at Sephora and the ensuing Wall Street rollercoaster for parent company Elf Beauty—details from MarketWatch—the Bieber name continues to drive both media and financial buzz. Notably, Justin quietly exited his streetwear label Drew House some months ago, marking a significant change in his entrepreneurial footprint, according to Spreaker's Justin Bieber Audio Biography.On social media, his every move and comment—especially those about his wife—have attracted swift attention, creating a viral ripple effect. Despite past rough patches, outlets like People and Elle note the couple is tighter than ever, with parenthood deepening their connection and shaping this new, more grounded phase of Justin's life. His blend of public affection, career evolution, and candid admissions has cemented his standing as one of pop culture's most watched figures this November.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Today, on Notable Leaders' Radio, I speak with JulieAnn Bornales, Creative Operations & Marketing Consultant, and Podcast Producer. She highlights the lessons learned from career setbacks, finding your voice in challenging environments, and the importance of asking for what you're worth.   In today's episode, we discuss: Don't overlook the power of self-belief when facing challenges or workplace uncertainty. Trusting in your ability to solve problems encourages you to keep going through setbacks, helping you recover faster and reach your goals. Know your worth and stand firm in negotiating it, even if it feels uncomfortable initially. Advocating for yourself early in your career can lead to better pay and opportunities later, so get used to asking for more, even if you're eager just to get your foot in the door. Be bold and reach out to people or platforms outside your comfort zone. Sometimes the simplest act of curiosity, like sending an email or asking a question, can lead to big opportunities, so never underestimate the power of taking that next small step. Explore passions and hobbies outside your job to boost creativity and emotional resilience. Participating in activities you enjoy, like baking or theater, can decrease stress and help you bring fresh energy and new ideas back to your main pursuits.   RESOURCES: Master's Thesis  Imagery implications of MTV : teen pop, adolescent girls, and sex role behaviors: https://scholarworks.sjsu.edu/etd_theses/3364/   Guest Bio A native of Northern California, JulieAnn received a double undergraduate degree in Sociology - Organizational Studies and Communications from the University of California at Davis and earned her Master's Degree in Mass Communications, writing her thesis on MTV, music videos, and gender identity at San Jose State University.  A music industry veteran of over 15 years, she spent the majority of her career at Warner Music Group, contributing across sales, marketing, digital strategy, and creative development—driving cross-functional initiatives that supported both artist growth and brand innovation.  She was a key contributor to the launch of Warner Music Group's first FAST (Free Ad-Supported Streaming Television) channels, helping to program the company's expansion into this rapidly growing digital media space.  She also played a central role in unifying podcasting initiatives across international markets and served as producer of the award-winning, Chartable-ranked series Totally 80's: The Podcast.  A proud alumnus of the Atlantic Theater Acting School in New York City, JulieAnn has also appeared in Off-Broadway productions, web-series and short films.
