Music Lessons Podcast #004: Vulnerability & Trust with Tina Schlieske

June 21, 2023 by Andy

Music Lessons is a podcast where we explore the analogous principles of music and growth by interviewing top musicians. In this episode, my guest is Tina Schlieske, the Minnesota native who’s amazing live performances are a must-see.

Tina Schlieske has been paving her own way in music for nearly three decades. She has fronted diverse bands, from the wildly popular Minneapolis Americana-Rock band, Tina and the B-Sides to groups that range from rock, to classic R&B to punk. Tina has shared the stage with St. Vincent, Patty Griffin, Robert Ellis, Jeff Bridges, Doors Guitarist Robbie Krieger, Etta James and Double Trouble just to name a few. Tina has been called a “smart, sensitive, earthy singer-songwriter with a superb voice” and is one of my favorite live music performers – no matter what genre she’s exploring or what type of venue she’s in.

In this conversation Tina and I discuss her early learnings about vulnerability, where her confidence comes from, and how she thinks about building trust when performing live – and so much more! You can find more out about Tina including her upcoming shows and album releases at TinaSchlieske.com.

Please enjoy my conversation with Tina Schlieske!

Billboard Music in Advertising Keynote with Kid Rock

August 13, 2010 by Andy

At the BBMiA conference waaaay back in June I was simply blown away by Kid Rock. Not having really listened to his music (other than not really liking Bawitdaba’s radio domination years ago) I wasn’t sure what to expect.

What I heard at his keynote was:

1) A guy who has worked his butt off from day 1.
2) Someone who’s taken the time to learn ALL aspects of his craft (creative, business, etc).
3) A very down to earth individual with a fantastic outlook on life.

…and more. I was able to record some of the Q&A at the end of the session with my phone and I’m posting it here. I hope you enjoy it!
