Staccato

Let’s find out why by following the rabbit hole down into the influence of early blues singers like Mildred Bailey and Robert Johnson with singer-songwriter and recording artist - Vic Horvath. Perhaps the owner of Vinyl Envy put it best when he said: “Once somebody’s kind of into the blues, they’re there, like they may not come out for awhile.” In this episode, we learn how Vic got curious about early rock & roll music and how she dug deeper into where it was coming from. She talks about the role confidence – or no confidence plays in being a musician and some of the challenges she’s faced, like: “it’s difficult standing up in front of people and just kind of baring it all for them.” Vic also explains what making it in the music business means to her. Having a good teacher in the early stages of your career is critical for the development of a young musician and Vic talks about the influence of an early blues mentor who just took one look at her and said: “you don’t want to go the paper route, do you Vic?”
