S2 EP:05 How Do You Muse? South Summit

Hello! Today we have our final HDYM episode of the year and it is with none other than the incredibly talented Jerome Blazé ✭ I speak to him fresh off the back of the release of his sophomore album ‘𝐿𝒾𝓋𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝑅𝑜𝑜𝓂’ and in the lead up to his album launch that happened last week at The Lansdowne (which I very sadly couldn’t go to and had major fomo). Jerome was super generous with letting me in on the BTS of his impressive album campaign. We talk all things KEXP, BIGSOUND, live setups/arrangements and burnout. This chat was such a pleasure! I can’t wait to see where Jerome ends up 🧡 Connect with HDYM on Instagram and TikTok

Hello! It’s been a minute since I’ve dropped an episode but it’s all worth the wait because today's ep is with the mesmerising Yasmina Sadiki!! Yasmina and her equally talented live band are definitely some of Sydney’s hardest gigging artists ✩✩✩ Yasmina was an absolute gem to chat to, I asked her all about being an independent artist, when and when not to say yes to a gig offer, claiming live royalties for improvisation tracks and getting to know the music scene in NY. I feel like she is defs going places!!  Connect with HDYM on Instagram and TikTok

Happy Wednesday! Today's episode is with the totally cool & beautifully kind Sophie McComish!! 1/4 of punk rock band Body Type and 1/2 of Blossom Rot Records, Sophie has worked in many sides of the music industry whilst being the ultimate rockstar - supporting icons like the Pixies and the Foo Fighters. Sophie has done so many of the things us artists would dream of yet she’s so real, relatable and honest!! <3 I ask her all about internationally touring, working at indie labels, the financial reality of being in a band lol, and what she sees for herself looking ahead.

Welcome back! This week I speak to concrete cowboys, The Slims ✭ **I apologise for the audio at the beginning, I promise it gets better at the 10min mark xx** As you’ll hear this chat has been a long time coming after bonding over the fact we all had the same burning questions about how the music industry works! I’ve seen them play not once but twice this month as part of their #Slimtember residency at the hottest club in town, Pleasure Club Newtown, and I’m now responsible for a spike in streams for their banger, ‘Faces’! In this episode I ask them about their range of day-jobs, their growing South American fan base, what they think of the local Sydney music scene and whose in charge of the band bank account. I bloody loved this ep! Enjoy :) Follow HDYM on Instagram and TikTok

✩ Welcome back to How Do You Muse! I can't think of a better way to kick off this season than having the absolutely incredible Annie Hamilton on the podcast!! I’ve been in awe of Annie’s project for a while now, it was her music that I first came across but have since been totally mesmerised by the world she has created for herself and her art - her quality & quantity of output is hard to grasp, particularly when you realise she has begun to release her music completely independently ✩ In this episode we talk about Iceland, hand-sewn sequins, girl tour, slut era, documentation, deadlines, and the fact that she’s having an album launch at The Lansdowne, Sydney and you should 100% come! Annie is an iconic storyteller, enjoy xx Follow How Do You Muse on Instagram & TikTok

Hello wonderful people! If you've made it to episode 10 then wow congrats, if you're just chiming in now, then welcome. As I bring this season to a close I am so grateful for all the conversations this project has brought up. Turns out I am not the only one wanting to know how musicians are making it work!? I want to thank all the fabulous local bands and artists for sharing their experiences in the music industry and giving us the BTS of their musical journeys! On today's episode I was lucky enough to chat to my own band, Ned, Jas and Isaac! I decided to wing this episode a bit haha but we spoke their individual projects aswell as our recent tour and #bandlife. Hold tight, there shall be a season 2, there is still lots to talk about!! See you there. <3 Maia To connect head to How Do You Muse?

𝕎𝕖𝕝𝕔𝕠𝕞𝕖 𝕓𝕒𝕔𝕜! On today's episode we have a duo who have been making all kinds of moves lately, ‘𝖉𝖆𝖓𝖈𝖊-𝖗𝖔𝖈𝖐 𝖆𝖗𝖈𝖍𝖎𝖙𝖊𝖈𝖙𝖘’, RAAVE TAPES! I got to ask them all my nosy questions the day after they dropped their latest track last week, ✧ ‘I JUST WANNA BE ALONE’ ✧ In this episode I ask Lindsay and Joab about the thriving Newcastle music scene and their long involvement with the community, I also find out how they got on the lineup for *Laneway* this year!  We talk about how hard their manager ‘Coops’ hustles for them and what it’s like being teachers by term and musos by school holidays. I also hear about Joabs’ knack for social media and Lindsays book rec of the year, Allen Carr’s Easy Way To Stop Smoking. I thoroughly enjoyed this chat and found out lots of interesting BTS things!! ps. I am also now fully aware of what a 𝒩𝑜𝓋𝑜𝒸𝒶𝓈𝓉𝓇𝒾𝒶𝓃 is. Enjoy xx To connect head to How Do You Muse?
