Optimizing Your Creativity with Don Gunn

I was very happy to have Don Gunn on the podcast this episode. Don is responsible for a lot of great sounding recordings and mixes (some that we've worked on together, even) including some Couch Riffs performance videos as of late. He's also one of the most entertaining folks to work with in a studio environment and is always down for a laugh. Did I mention he is a great drummer? It shouldn't come as a surprise. Many of my favorite studio folks are drummers. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I enjoyed having it! It takes us a little while to get up to speed but there are some pretty golden nuggets sprinkled all throughout!  If you're enjoying the Couch Riffs podcast and/or video series please consider becoming a pledge supporter for as little as .99/month at the link below OR at anchor.fm/couch-riffs (or just search for Couch Riffs on the site). Also, please leave a positive review and 5-star rating, it really helps a lot. Couchriffs.com has links to all of our podcast episodes and videos as well as our merchandise store at Etsy. We have some handsome 100% cotton t-shirts, trucker hats, and other goodies for your enjoyment. Thank you for listening and for your continued support!  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/couch-riffs/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/couch-riffs/support
