Approachable Music S3 E9: Nick Semrad, Planets and Doorways

The legend Nick Semrad Joins us on this episode. Nick is one of the most killing keyboardists in the world, having played with Cory Henry, Mark Giuliana, Knower, and countless other groups. He's also a dynamic, opinionated, and wise speaker with extremely interesting views on music and musicianship. I met him a few years back when he interviewed me for his podcast, "Grid Kids". We had a great piano conversation that day, and after running into him around the scene countless times over the years, I actually took a formal lesson from him in February of 2023. Nick is awesome.I hope to have him back on the show soon. Leave a comment below.
