  • Leah T talks about that Van Life & Nashville Music, Live Performance of Original Songs Folk Rock Pop

    Leah T talks about that Van Life & Nashville Music, Live Performance of Original Songs Folk Rock Pop
    Apr 1 2022
    Join host Sam Jack as he sits down with creative entrepreneurs, technicians and artists to share their story about how they make it in this mad, mad world. Leah T talks about developing her music career while also teaching music to make ends meet and striking the balance. She tells us the freedoms she has experienced by living the Van Life while still trying to teach remotely and establish any vestige of a live music circuit during the height of the pandemic. Mainly, she just expressed gratitude for her good fortune, finally settling(for now) in Nashville and taking the bad times as opportunities for growth. She also blesses us with a performance of her original songs! LEAH T is bound to dazzle any audience with her smooth vocals, funky piano chops, and irresistible charm. LEAH T has spent much of her life in the Twin Cities honing her craft as a uniquely creative singer/songwriter. Her many years spent studying the piano have transformed her into a dynamic solo performer as well as a magnetic frontwoman. After calling St. Paul, Minnesota her home for 24 years, LEAH T made the decision to move towards the Pacific coast and quickly dove head first into the Seattle music scene in 2015. She recruited The Baked Goods to back her solo project and further enrich the music's harmonic texture and deepen the groove. Leah T released her sophomore EP, Feeling things., in the fall of 2018. She also spent 2020 getting her DIY fingers dirty with a new release each month, most of which were accompanied by a unique music video. While still pursuing her original project, she was quickly scooped up by a number of local bands as a strong, supporting keyboardist and vocalist. In 2020, the artist community was one of many groups that suffered greatly during the pandemic. With live performances at a standstill and real time collaboration with bandmates nearly impossible, Leah T was forced to make decisions she felt would be in the best interest of her career and overall well being. In December, 2020, she moved into a converted cargo van in attempts to travel the country as safely as possible, chase inspiration, and grow as an artist and an individual. The journey took her from Seattle to Florida with a slew of stops in between. Leah returned to Seattle in the summer of 2021 but knew her adventure was far from over. In November, 2021, she hit the road again with a plan to plant roots in Nashville. During the next year, we can anticipate further releases and funky collaborations in unlikely locations.

  • Tulley Rafferty talks twitch, Telltale games & the NEW Splinter Game

    Tulley Rafferty talks twitch, Telltale games & the NEW Splinter Game
    Oct 1 2020
    Delve into the mind of a Video Game Developer as this week, we talk with Tulley Rafferty about his background in the field. From working at Telltale Games to twitch.tv and what exactly goes into developing, designing and programming a game. I had the pleasure of working with Tulley o a few 48hr Film Projects over the years, so when it was time for him to make his own video game with live action elements, it was a no brainer to team up again. Viral Media Network produced the Video Production elements to his new experimental independent game called Splinter. VMN secured location, crew, gear as well as assisted with storyboarding, 2D graphic elements & other coordination. We chat about that experience as we shot all of the scenes over the course of 4 weekends. Then he programmed the game side of it with a few colleagues over the course of a few months. The end result is an immersive experimental video game experience. Check it out here! SplinterGame.com We also talk parenthood, balancing work/life/family & what helps him stay motivated to create.
