59. Andy Eppler
My guest today is Colorado based artist, Andy Eppler. I think I have an affinity for booking Andys on my show. Could I be slightly biased? This particular Andy (who sometimes goes by "Ando") truly embodies the word, artist. He writes songs, he sings, he produces, he paints (very well I might add), does liquid light, and even directs films.\n\nIn our conversation, we chat about his new album, Broke-Down Deluxe. Besides his Tom Waits style vocals and funk production leanings, Eppler sets himself apart in two other distinct ways: \n1. He kicks the lead singer (himself) out of the band halfway through the album and replays all the songs instrumentally! It's a nice joke because Andy IS the band.\n2. There is an art booklet included with the album. And it's completely free! You can download it on his site.\n\nAside from his newest release, we chat about life, art, and his two philosophies.\n\nIf you enjoy the podcast, please let others know, subscribe or write a review. 5 star ratings and reviews on Apple Music as well as subscribing to our YouTube Channel help us out the most!!
