Welcome to Quarantuned With the Good Graces! Quarantuned is an interview podcast that focuses on staying creative, present, and connected during these unsettled and isolating times. In episode 3, I talk with Atlanta musician and man about town Tom Cheshire. Best known (at least to me, but he's done so much amazing stuff!) for his work in All Night Drug Prowling Wolves and West End Motel, Tom and I talked about Kimono My House -- the Facebook group that connected us and has served as the catalyst for so many new relationships since the pandemic -- staying creative despite isolation and uncertainty, the importance of community, and much more.
This was a fun, inspiring conversation, and I hope you enjoy it. You can support this and my other musical-related endeavors by becoming a patron — in fact patrons that contribute $10 or more each month get the unedited, video versions of these quarantuned chats. You can become a patron for as little as $1 a month, and I appreciate any and all contributions, so thanks in advance for checking it out at patreon.com/kimware
