245: Emilio Guarino on Making It

This is Emilio Guarino. He plays bass.

But that’s not all he does. He makes music with computers. He also teaches and performs in many musical styles.

He’s even written a book to help musicians figure out how to find a foothold.

On his blog and Youtube channel, Emilio asks questions like:

• Are you the type of person you’d hire for a gig?
• Are auditions a problem-solving activity or a chance to beat up on yourself?
• When does the real world actually start?

We dig into these topics and much more in this interview!
