Neon Rainbow
Welcome to the Neon Rainbow podcast, a weekly show dedicated to all the musical artists out there that have dared to chase their dreams. Each week we discuss the ins and outs of the music business from the ground up perspective. Most artists, are in the streets busking, playing the dark corners of a dive bar, all in a push to get on the big stage. We’ll be offering advice, personal antidotes, and interviews of other successful artists and songwriters all to help keep you motivated and on track with your musical career. This is the home for everyone who’s dedicated their lives to “chasing that neon rainbow…”.
