Mike Wanchic Interview: This was an absolutely KILLER conversation! Mike absorbed and learned the basics of music and guitar from the recovering heroin addicts (all professional jazz musicians), in a well-known hospital his father ran… meeting John Mellencamp &amp; how the band slowly progressed by deliberately tweaking various aspects of their sound and songwriting to improve at their craft, NOT chasing pop culture trends, how Mike became John’s co-producer and the skills that made him good at it, working with Mick Ronson, Ian Hunter, Steve Cropper… how to build a good live show, diligence, work ethic, connecting with your audience, Mike’s cool vintage strats, loyalty, fatherhood and more. First-Class all the way - a MUST Listen!
