Kristian Bush and I have been friends for years and have a number things in common outside of music: we're both computer nerds, we both have two kids and being the same age, we grew up with similar musical influences.
I wanted Kristian to help me launch this project because he and I used to talk and scheme endlessly back in the day when we were both web programmers about all the wonderful things we could build for musicians and music fans. This project is hopefully, in some small way, the realization of those many discussions.
In the course of the hour long episode, Kristian talks about his early musical education, his philosophy of songwriting and takes us behind the curtain for a peek at how a couple of his songs were crafted and how they have evolved over the years.
