Musicality Mondays S2 E10: Frontman, Saxophonist, Vocalist Dante Leyva#minnesotamusic #musicpodcast #minnesotapodcastI am so happy I got to sit down with Dante for this episode. This interview being the season finale was the icing on the cake. As I mention in the video, I’ve looked up to Dante for a while now! He explodes with energy on stage and sounds fantastic while performing. You can’t help but join along in the experience he’s creating when he’s on stage. To be able to hear his story really meant so much to me. He’s so honest and genuine and this was one of the most fun interviews with our belly laughs, jokes, and surprise improv at the ending. I hope you cackle as much ad we did! Thanks for watching and we will see you on season 3 premiering in April! 💜💜💜This is a Make Your Own Trophy Records Production.

Musicality Mondays Season 2: Episode 9: Music Producer, Vocalist, Jordan Johnston#minnesotamusic #minnesotapodcast #musicpodcast I met Jordan back in 2022 at The Legacy Building in Minneapolis. It was at one of the events the owners Fancy and Emmanuel were hosting called The Rotation. I was lucky enough to be asked to be one of the featured artists and so was Jordan. I immediately started grooving to his music with his band and it was such a fun night! We went on to really get to talk when we were both featured artists at the 2nd Annual On the One Music Festival hosted by Chadwick Niles Phillips. It’s been great to see Jordan’s progression and I’m excited to see what he does next as well as have him on Musicality Mondays!This is a Make Your Own Trophy Records Production.

Musicality Mondays Season 2 Episode 4 Photographer Jose C#minnesotamusic #podcasting #musicalityI had the pleasure of meeting Jose in June for the Art in the Hollow celebration! The music portion I was performing in was hosted by Lenora Magee- Howard/ Orisun Arts & Wellness! I was singing with the house band of Orisun and ended up meeting Jose when I was listening to the other performers and I gave him one of my t-shirts! From there he told me he was a photographer and we made a plan to collaborate. Jose is such a sweet and amazing person and we were fast friends. He’s very respectful and we had so much fun at our photography session! I love the way the photos came out! I hope you enjoy this episode.
