For this official season kickoff I interview Whim Grace. Whim hired myself and producer Tommy Hazerian to work on her upcoming EP, Good Gurl. We flew to New Orleans to record and film, and while there, interviewed Whim from her vibe-y NOLA apartment. We talk about everything from how her parents wanted her to marry rich, to how to introduce yourself to women on the internet that you just want to play music with. 

Expect Whim's EP in the first half of '23. Meanwhile check her out at the links below and stay tuned for more episodes.

Hi friends,

This week’s guest is my long time friend Adam Pike. Adam is an engineer, producer, front of house sound guy who has more stories than he knows what to do with. He’s toured with Red Fang, engineered an Icarus Line album and obviously he’s friends with me so he’s always rubbing elbows with the stars. 

Too much to cover in the description, so here are all the links I promise in the podcast.

Hi friends,

This week is a bit of a curve ball folks, so get ready. My guests are Tommy and Jaime Hazerian, and we talk about their DMT experience as well as spirituality. It's a subject I've wanted to discuss for a while and this felt like the  perfect opportunity to get weird! Hope you enjoy.  

As always, www.nickarnesonmusic.com for more stuff and thank you so much for listening.

Great way to start, and you'll be shocked out much you'll get out of it.
