SHERYL CROW & The Students, PART 2 (of 4)

We’re jumping back into the conversation between Sheryl Crow and one of my Lipscomb Music Industry Studies students, Abby Whitman, recorded at a private event at The Well in Nashville. If you missed Part 1 (also the “Pilot” episode of this new show format), you’ll want to go check that out too, but you can listen to these in any order.

In this segment, Abby asks Sheryl where she finds inspiration, how her definition of success has evolved over the years, and how her values as an artist shape her continuing work.

You can hear the entire conversation by joining this project on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/TrueTunes for as little as $5 per month.

A note for longtime listeners: True Tunes Connect isn’t the classic True Tunes Podcast, though it comes from the same place. These episodes run shorter — usually 15 to 20 minutes — built around two things we care about most: developing artists, and developing the audiences who need them. The long-form conversations you remember haven’t gone anywhere; they’ll surface from time to time as Special Features, and the full extended interview (including the rest of this Sheryl Crow conversation) is available to our Patreon members (and coming soon to our Substack subscribers) at Patreon.com/TrueTunes and TrueTunes.Substack.com.

We will also continue to throw super-short “Microdose” episodes into the feed, along with some @45RPM specials. But True Tunes Connect is a wider, more comprehensive project we are developing to connect artists to the ideas, inspiration, and resources they need, and listeners to the artists they love. It’s about artist – and audience – development and connection, with expressions that include the podcast, articles, workshops, books, and gatherings. You’ll hear about it all – including our creed – here on the pilot and in upcoming episodes. Spread the word!
