This episode featuring Tom Meny originally aired in June 2019.

This is a rewind edition, in which I’ve edited the conversation to be more succinct and somewhat more relevant. Tom has appeared in two episodes of this podcast. In his first appearance, Tom and I spoke about house concerts. This was the beginning of my interest in house concerts and as fate would have it, I was able to do my first in February 2020. You know what happened in March of that year. You may, or may not, know that I’ve relocated since then and am thus reestablishing myself in a new music community. As such, I hope to do more house concerts soon.

Since this podcast first began, episodes have been more heavily edited, offering you a better listening experience. In the early days, I had an attitude of low / no editing. If you go back and listen to the original version of this episode, you’ll notice the difference. In any case, I hope you’ll enjoy this Rewind edition of my conversation with Tom Meny.

In this conversation, Tom and I talk about the Austin music scene, the Singer Songwriter With Tom Meny podcast, rejection, writers’ slump, songwriting groups, songwriting advice from Cindi Lauper and Shannon Curtis, email marketing, getting paid, and more.

Please enjoy.
