Hard Folk with Matt Gower
Hard Folk is a podcast about the people who make music or contribute to their community. It takes equal parts insanity and commitment to get up on stage and bear your soul. In reality insanity and commitment are the tip of the iceberg: it takes courage, hustle, dedication, artistic vision, perseverance, belief in yourself… This is your story, this is my story, this is our story. This is Hard Folk.
