We discuss the following in our conversation: Can you share with us some of your testimony of coming to Faith in Christ? Tell me some about your background as a musician/artist growing up.  How did you get into being a studio musician. Was that something you always wanted to do.  How do you stay in demand for people to book you? I know you have worked with some very cool people. Can you share a top highlight? How have you grown as a musician/artist/producer over the years and what are some ways we can steward/hone our crafts? Do you think excellence is value in the arts in the Church? Why does excellence and faithfulness matter? What word would you say to church musicians about their serving on a worship team.  As you have played 100s of songs for Christian worship what observations have you had? Anything the church can do better in? How does the Bible inform your life as a studio musician?

Trade Martin is an American musician, songwriter and producer.Grammy award-winning multi-instrumentalist, Trade Martin, possesses one of the most gifted musical minds and voices in the entertainment spectrum.Trivia: Trade Martin's song "Take Me for  a Little While" is sampled on "Ghost Town" is a song by rapper Kanye WestBUT Trade has Worked with the Legends Like Levi Stubbs of the Four Tops Producer, Phil Spector, Been a Session Musician, of famous  Grammy® Award Winning songs, From the Brill Building to Iconic Commercials for Pepsi. Thru the Decades of Music a Mix of Genre's are happening & Trad was a part of the scene Trade Martin's career has covered so many eras of music — as a producer, arranger, songwriter, and even occasionally as a recording artist — that he's almost impossible to pin down as a musical figure. In the late '50s, in a partnership with Johnny Power, he began recording acts such as Johnny & the Jokers and released their work on the Harvard Records label before the two formed Rome Records in 1960. Rome only lasted until 1962, weighted down by its lack of reliable distribution, which prevented the company from succeeding despite signing such talent as the Earls (who went on to score their hits for Old Town Records), Del & the Escorts, and the Glens. Martin usually played all of the instrumental accompaniments for these groups, overdubbing the instruments one at a time. In 1963, following the demise of the Rome label, Martin left the partnership and recorded under his own name on Roulette and other labels through the end of the '60s, and even got an entire LP, Let Me Touch You, out on Buddah Records in 1972. His main activity and success, however, were rooted in his work as a producer, arranger, and songwriter, functions that he has performed over the years in idioms ranging from '60s girl group pop/rock, folk, and electric blues to '70s funk and '80s dance-pop. He has also worked with artists such as Eric Andersen, Ellie Greenwich, Lesley Gore, the Tokens, Ian and Sylvia, Rick Nelson, B.B. King, B.T. Express, Pam Russo, and Solomon Burke. What's more, his songs have been recorded by the likes of Dusty Springfield ("Take Me for a Little While"), Patti LaBelle & the Bluebelles, B.B. King ("Peace to the World"), and Dave Edmunds ("Don't You Double Cross Me"). He has also written and produced a handful of film soundtracks.Martin wrote several film scores. Credits include Made for Each Other, Hail, Stormy Monday, The Inkwell, It's My Party, and West New York.[https://www.trademartinmusic.com© 2022 Building Abundant Success!!2022 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

This podcast, and the book it's based on, is written for the perspective of the musician who writes, records, and performs live. However listener Brian D wrote to Emily and asked how he can move his career forward without being a songwriter. He said, "I am a drummer trying to get my name out there to bigger artists." And thus this bonus episode titled "How to Be a Session Musician" was born. Host and Author Emily White immediately thought of her longtime friend, Brian Viglione, for this episode. Brian is a world-class drummer whose band The Dresden Dolls has experienced the heights of success while he's parlayed that into a career recording with Nine Inch Nails and playing with one of his childhood heroes, The Violent Femmes. Tune in to hear how Brian has built a successful career as a session, touring musician and more. Also! Anyone who shares this episode before 2/28/22 and tags @emwizzle and @zildjiancompany on Instagram or Twitter, or @emwizzle and @Zildjian on Facebook will be entered in a drawing to win a 16" K Constantinople Crash cymbal from Zildjian!
