On this week’s episode, we speak with two music icons - John Ondrasik (Five For Fighting) and Edwin McCain! John and Edwin came on to promote their summer tour which is kicking off this June. Not just that, but we dive into the legacy of their songs “I’ll Be” and “Superman (It’s Not Easy).” This might be a shorter episode, but we pack a lot in. We cover everything from The Masked Singer, Carla Ondrasik’s new book, and chasing squirrels! Honestly, with this episode, I Could Not Ask For More ;)

On this week’s episode, we have musician and multi-instrumentalist Austin France travels to Poughkeepsie to join us in studio! This is prbably the longest interview yet, but when Austin's in town, we just have to let the energy flow and have fun! We talk about musical inspirations, shared performing and recording experiences, children's kids shows, and way more. Also, Austin does some show-and-tell with some of his custom guitars.
