Episode 35 - Taking a Look Back

Putting together the episodes of Measured Voices over the last 16 months has been a labor of love. The podcast has also opened my eyes to the depth and breadth of songwriting talent in and around Idaho's Treasure Valley.

The upside of that is that there is a large pool of songwriters from which to search for guests for future episodes. The downside is that nearly everyone is hustling for gigs, and many of them have to travel far and wide to secure performance opportunities, which can make scheduling tough.

My current difficulty in lining up guests, coupled with the fact that it's summer, prompted me to decide this is the perfect time to take a look back while I decide what to do going forward. Over the next several weeks, I'll put together retrospective episodes sharing bits and pieces of the conversation that have taken place to date, along with some of the songs these songwriters have been gracious enough to share with me and you.

This first retrospective episode covers the first seven episodes of the podcast, one of those a two-parter. Links to the full episodes can be found below.

If you are a songwriter or know of one would be interested in being featured in a future episode, contact me via email at measuredvoices@gmail.com. In the meantime, be sure to go out and support live local music and local songwriters.
