Episode 23 - Wendy Matson

I recently sat down with longtime Boise singer-songwriter Wendy Matson to talk about her music. In this episode, Wendy talks about her earlier career performing "commercial music." She also talks about how her songwriting evolved to help find her own voice.

Along the way, Wendy discusses other ways in which her songwriting has changed, how she categorizes her music (if she has to), learning to accept feedback from other songwriters, and performing therapeutic music. Wendy sees music and songwriting as spiritual experiences, and we'll talk about that a bit as well.

In recent months, Wendy has stepped beyond music (sort of) to dip her toes into the waters of invention and entrepreneurship. We'll talk about how necessity helped give birth to Wendy's creation.

Wendy will also share three of her original songs: "Who, What, Why and Where;" "Sea World" (both performed with Alan Maslac on flute); and "I'm Gonna Do It Till I Get It Right."
