Can you be a music artist and work in advertising? (with Luke Dick)

Music is magical, but it's also a business.

FULL EPISODE https://youtu.be/jxJemIie7-U

On this episode I'm joined by songwriter, storyteller, and musician, Luke Dick. We talk about Luke’s music, his time in advertising, and his fantastic documentary, Red Dog, about the rowdy club in Oklahoma City, where his mother and her friends used to work as strippers. You gotta see it!
