Making music is like making a pizza. It's all about the sauce. And the dough. Also the toppings. But really it's the cheese, unless you're vegan. Vegan cheese is terrible. Basically, in the process of making something great, everything matters. Henry Terepka's work in Zula exemplifies this. From his performances and production to the lyricism and the writing, Henry and his bandmates have been making some spectacular music. Check them out at http://zula.bandcamp.com After a nice healthy break Make My Day is back with a brand new episode. I would say it's somewhere between a domino and a soggy papa Jon with extra garlic juice sauce. Thanks for listening! https://marcusbrown.me/blog/2018/5/1/make-my-day-episode-46-w-henry-terepka

Chelsea LaBate For more than a decade, Chelsea has been relentless. Song after song, creating and touring endlessly. Under the moniker Ten Cent Poetry, Chelsea makes music. Chelsea discovered her knack for songwriting in New York City through the grind and promise of an open mic. Surprised by the early recognition she received from her performances, music took over as the guiding force in her life. Originally a painter, Chelsea followed a new path that led to life, story and adventure. I was introduced to Chelsea through an old friend whose opinions I value highly. As I looked into her work, I immediately gravitated toward her Songcrafter radio series. Built with hours and hours of mixed media, Songcrafter is a course intended to help open the creativity of others, while existing simultaneously as a personal manifesto of expressive power. Chelsea is a creative genius, and her work is an echo of that fact. I am more than honored to share with you our conversation covering path, purpose, persistence and the

Candice Leigh is a healer. I met Candice a few months ago through a mutual friend while out and about in Brooklyn. When she told me what she did for a living, I’d made up in my mind that I’d ask her to come on to the show sometime in the future. “With over a decade of teaching and practicing yoga,” Candice blends Hatha and Vinyasa with the traditions of Tantra as she traverses her own spiritual path. As described on her website (https://nakedyogatherapy.com), Candice has “developed a philosophy surrounding the emotional stress caused by presenting an incomplete image of ourselves to the world.” Join me for a special episode of Make My Day that I hope will be both fun and enlightening.

Taft is one of the most compelling artists I’ve had the pleasure of knowing. A relentless creator, captivating performer, and an uncompromising producer. I first met him after he’d moved back from his time spent in New York. Watching him perform, I became envious of the control he maintained over his material. He gracefully dug into song after song, each of the high caliber one witnesses when attending the performance of a true artist. One indistinguishable summer afternoon in Austin, I had gotten together with Josh Halpern (drummer for Marmalakes, Shearwater, TAFT among many others). He was living with Taft in a house just a few minutes walking distance from my own. I didn’t know Taft too well at the time. We came in to say hi and found him in a poorly lit bedroom, hunched over a computer screen working on his music. At that moment, I started to realize that there were artists recording and producing their own stuff. Getting their hands dirty. Not waiting for anyone to give them permission. Just doing it.
