Fredrik Walmann is a singer/songwriter. John Alan talks with Fredrik about Fredrik's upcoming solo debut single "Feels Like". They talk about songwriting, Fredrik's self-educating run of 170 open-mic appearances in 2019, and the power of networking. John Alan and Fredrik also share their thoughts on the similarities and differences between performing and writing in the arts of music and standup comedy. John Alan tries to keep from throwing fatherly advice in Fredrik's direction, but can't help himself. Fredrik, being the kind soul that he is, tolerates this.
From me, John Alan,
to my listeners and viewers:
I am a believer in "Enlightenment Through Dialogue". I carefully choose my guests for my show. I do this show because I am looking to learn from people who inspire me, motivate me, or teach me more about the wonders of life. This is my journey as I work to put myself in a better condition and position from which I can help others as well as myself.
Come on home, kick your feet up and join me.
