In this episode we are acknowledging the sound of American Independence with a twist. This July 4 marked 250 years since the Second Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence in the United States of America.

One day before this official anniversary, Madonna released a new album that is built on the concept of freedom from tyranny too, only hers plays out on the dancefloor. This got us thinking about the connection between political independence, and independent music. So we’re following her lead and considering how to go it alone through the story of cutting edge music as it played out in the early 2000s.

Through a parallel reading of Michael Barclay's Hearts on Fire and Chris DeVille's Such Great Heights we will share some takeaways about trend cycles, who decides what is ‘cool,’ the hazards of fame and how to maintain integrity under financial pressure.

Whether performing in a rock arena or a political one, there are lessons too about what it means to remain truly independent, and the tradeoffs that come along with freedom. And there are reminders about the power of creative work, in any field, and how it can endure when coming from an honest place.
