State of My Art Podcast - EPISODE 5 | Guest: Case Tanner

Hailing from Santa Fe, New Mexico, Case Tanner is a bass virtuoso. He plays in a great jazz folk-rock band with his lovely wife Heather called The Bus Tapes.  I met Case seven years ago at a gas station just outside of Albuquerque. He came up to our van and said "you guys look like a band"  We told him our story, he gave us his card and told us to cruise up to Sante Fe on our off days and he'd find us a last-minute show. Since then he's gotten me several shows at a few different Santa Fe venues and a place to stay every time I roll through. We also get to hang out at NAMM each January which is always a blast. In this episode we discuss interesting ways to keep followers engaged without live concerts (as well as masked concerts), the effects of the lockdowns, the mindset you must have to achieve success in the music business, perfect pitch vs. relative pitch, and Taylor Swift's new album . Case also shows us some of the randomly odd gear he decorates his house with, and we get a surprise visit from Heather Tanner and their new dog, Buddy! Follow Case and Heather's band @TheBusTapes on instagram and YouTube to see some live footage of The Bus Tapes. They're Grrrreat! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. <a href="https://anchor.fm/app">https://anchor.fm/app</a> Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/stateofmyart/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/stateofmyart/support</a>
