Shannon Hoon was one of the most unique and talented singers of the 90’s 🎤✨
The criticism of Blind Melon’s second album Soup may have contributed to his downward spiral.

A hard reminder: you need thick skin in this business or it will tear you up. 🛡️
Make music that you love.
And be ready for the hate.

Shame is a very subtle emotion 🧠💭
We all carry it. And that’s human.
Meet it with compassion, not judgment 🤍

You can combat the programming of guilt that lives in your mind by changing how you speak to yourself.
Your inner dialogue matters. It shapes everything—your art, your confidence, your healing 🌱🎶

Keep your larynx even in your throat 🎤
Raising and lowering it over and over will harm your voice over time ⚠️
Your range comes from the strength and coordination of the muscles—not from yanking your larynx up and down 🧠💪
Straining doesn’t increase range (at least not for long) ❌
Sustainable technique = longevity 🔥

The recording process is a perfect mirror for where you are on your spiritual and emotional growth path. 🎙️🪞
Microphones and speakers don’t lie. 🎧
Face the truth of where you are—and let that reflection move you up the ladder. 🧠⬆️✨

Be creative with your imagery. 👁️📸
Brick walls and railroad tracks are out.
Angles are in. Sharp lines. Motion. ⚡️
Cool clothes. Dynamic poses.
Something that stops the scroll.

Image matters now. A lot.
Don’t just be a dad band. 🔥🎸

Now music is free. 🎧
People don’t buy records. They stream.
Is it bad? Kind of.

It means you have to become a more creative entrepreneur. 💡
Music is the spark.
Merch and live shows are where the money is now. 🎸🧢🎟️

Here’s my preferred way to record a band economically 👇
Yes, it requires a metronome. And yes — you can do this in a rehearsal space, not a studio. 🎧🏗️
Think about the savings of not having to rent a studio for starters. 💸🔥

🎵 Tips:
• Scratch guitar + vocals to a click
• Drums
• Guitar
• Bass
• Vocals
• Auxiliary
• Mix
