Don't Give Up Your Day Job: Podcast Series

10 May 2016 - 0 Comments

Danny McCrum and Bobby Kennedy have recently launched a podcast series where we talk to creative professionals about their careers. Musicians, producers, engineers, actors, comedians, directors and more. They spoke to muzic.net.nz about this podcast series:

We feel these industries are often misrepresented through stereotypes and marketing spin, often leading the public and up and coming creative people to a warped impression of what we all do. The fact is, creative professionals are fascinating characters who have had to work very hard and overcome many personal and professional obstacles. They are dedicated, multi-talented people who make great sacrifices and take great risks and we think this is worth celebrating.

So our agenda is to shine a light on this subject through a series of podcasts. The conversations are relaxed, unscripted and honest. We hope this will prove to be a great resource for those wanting to pursue a career in the arts and an interesting and inspiring listen for everybody else.

This is who we are:

Drummer Bobby Kennedy was a founding member of OpShop and Stereobus. OpShop became one of the most successful bands in New Zealand history and during his time in the band they toured the world and experienced all sides of the music industry. He has also played for many other greats including Neil Finn and he currently tours with AutoMatic 80s.

Guitarist Danny McCrum is a solo artist and a session musician. He has released three albums, he’s been a full time musician for over eleven years and he’s played support for many top artists including Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Tommy Emmanuel, John Mayer & many more. He currently tours with The Buskers, Magnolia Memoir (LA) and AutoMatic 80s.
