A childhood spent in a Southwest Michigan farming town under the guidance of parents who loved the arts as much as one another led me to appreciate all forms of creative expression from an early age.The only thing I ever wanted to do was connect people with great entertainment, but it took a while to find my calling. I successfully petitioned my hometown for funding to open a music venue at fifteen, and by seventeen I was traveling the countryside performing songs I wrote. College brought an opportunity to study the entertainment while moonlighting as a radio DJ and blossoming critic. It was during that time that I created a music blog known as Under The Gun Review, which I later sold to a media company shortly after graduation.  The choice to build a career on the merit of my skills led to industry recognition and bylines at some of the biggest publications on the planet, including Rolling Stone and Alternative Press. It also led to marketing work at a music startup, tour management with artists on Van’s Warped Tour, the launch of a record label, and my current role as Director Of Customer Engagement at Haulix. Throughout my journey, the power that entertainment possesses has been a focus of my work. The right words, images, and music can transform someone’s life and make them see things from a fresh perspective. My goal is to help creative people reach new fans and better engage with their audience. The world needs great art now more than ever, and together, we can help people find the next thing that changes their life.

On this episode, I speak with James Shotwell. He runs his own podcast, Inside Music, which you should go subscribe to right now, as well as working on a variety of other things, including Haulix, one of music’s leading digital tools to fight music piracy. Haulix is a service that I love using, as it allows me to check out records before they’re released in a secure manner. James previously ran a successful online publication, Under The Gun Review, which is where I first became familiar with him. You can follow him on both Twitter and Instagram, @JamesDShotwell

On this episode of INSIDE MUSIC, host James Shotwell calls returning guest Jacob Tender to discuss the current state of music blogging, the rise of podcasts, and the need for change in the world. This is Jacob's third time on Inside Music, and every time he's appeared he has had a new role in the industry. Jacob recently launched a podcast of his own, VBR, and discussing that project leads to a great conversation about the role podcasts are playing in shaping the future of music journalism. James and Jacob also discuss the recent death of a music blog they ran together for years, Under The Gun Review, as well as the reasons why they're not necessarily sad to see it come to an end. The world is a crazy place, but as long as we communicate and help one another it's not so bad. Enjoy!

On this episode of Inside Music, James connects with Under The Gun Review editor Matthew Leimkuehler to discuss his career, the importance of great interviews, and what it takes to make it in the modern music industry. Spoiler alert: You don't need to leave the midwest in order to be successful.

Fortunately, I have a very fun conversation with James Shotwell who runs the site, Under The Gun Review , as well as working for a great music industry service called Haulix. We get in depth with discussions on the Christian music scene, is multi-tasking really a good thing and how playing terrible music is actually good for you. James was a great sport and up for discussing anything. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers
