Fly In Formation - Arlo Maverick
This week I had return guest and friend of the show Arlo Maverick join chat to talk about grants and award shows, just before heading off to the Vancouver Juno's. We also talked about his trip to Asia to play in a showcase, and a few other things, but mostly we just chopped it up about grants and how to apply for them. It was decidedly one of the most informative episodes yet and I really appreciated the chance to have a one on one grant writing seminar like this. The information should prove invaluable to indie artists looking to get into the grant game.
Listen to the audio only version of this episode exclusively at https://www.mixcloud.com/doobyis - where you will also find ongoing weekly mixes of 100% Canadian new release Hip Hop on my show "After the Smoke Is Clear" (#ATSIC) - each episode is followed by an interview with an artist, tap in and support the scene.
These interviews happen Tuesdays on Twitch - come by and catch them live! Listen to the audio only version of Fly in Formation - attached after an hour long mix of new indie rap on After the Smoke is Clear at https://www.mixcloud.com/doobyis. This one will be due up after episode 610 this week.
Everyone’s welcome to drop in for the live streams on Twitch, say what’s up, or suggest a question to the guest. If it’s a good one, I might even pretend I thought of it myself.
Hit follow on Youtube too while you’re at it, I dream of one day having 1000 followers and being able to monetize this show.
