Anywhere The Needle Drops
Music and art is all around us. Join Justin Flagel for conversations with the musicians, artists, and creative people making things happen here in Michiana and beyond. Tales from the growing local scene will highlight the creators, venues, and events. Performers from the regional and national scene will stop by to visit. Big or small, learn about who they are, what they’re making, and what drives them as creators and as people.

Matt of Salt Lake City's Heartless Breakers chats with me about avoiding career choices and awesome music. We'll get to hear a cut from their Prescriptions EP.

Check out the band over at heartlessbreakers.bandcamp.com
