I Wish More People Were Here

"I Wish More People Were Here" would be a great epitaph for a musician. I'm a musician. Instead of being dead though, I'm doing this podcast. My name is Morgan Geer . I perform on all sorts of stages from Albuquerque to Zagreb. On this podcast, I'm philosophizing with friends who follow their star in a drink ticket marketplace and still manage to keep the lights on, outside and in. Or don't. Fellow musicians discuss how our calling can be sustainable, physically, financially and psychically. We'll hopefully come away with insight to the effort and mentality it takes to get from the front door of a warm home to the back door of a cold bar.

I Wish More People Were Here is a arts podcast hosted by Morgan Geer, with 10 episodes on record and a Required Pod Score of 80. PitchCentric scores this show on Booking Probability, Listen Score, and live audience signals refreshed every 24 hours.

  Episode #9

  I Wish More People Were Here with Matt Beveridge Bean Rizzo

  Jul 15, 202638 minS1

  Episode 9: "The Joy of Righteous Anger" Matt Rizzo is the son of 11th Dream Day's Janet Bean and Rick Rizzo. His latest release as Horizon of Darkness was recorded at The Loft in Chicago and features Spencer Tweedy on drums and Mark Greenberg on guitar. Matt has a rare genetic disorder, Glut1 Deficiency Syndrome which - I've read - stops the brain from getting enough energy . I won't begin to try and explain, you can look it up if you're interested. Needless to say, life can be incredibly challenging. Matt is only the eighth person in the world to be diagnosed with Glut1 . He's a poet, a musician, a Special Olympic power-lifter. To say Matt has a unique perspective on the human experience is an understatement. horizonofdarkness1.bandcamp.com horizonofdarkness.bandcamp.com

  I Wish More People Were Here with Jimmy Brad Ray

  <p>Episode 6, "Jimmy Brad Takes Seriously What The Gods Meant For Fun."</p><p>James Bradley Raymond: "The Pied Piper of Southern Garage Rock"; dive bar residents from NYC to Atlanta and Austin, TX know Jimmy Brad as the world's friendliest (and clumsiest) frontman, the face of Jimmy and the Teasers. To North Carolinians, he and his bands were ubiquitous darlings of Sleazefest in Chapel Hill and the Heavy Rebel 4th of July Weekender in Winston-Salem. Closer to home, for me though, he's the caretaker of Teaser Ranch, a rest stop and recording house for the exotic and mundane.</p><...
