John Avilla joined his family’s band at only 8 years of age and the experience ignited a lifelong passion for music. Building on his expertise in branding and marketing for global companies, he is now a co-founder of Sound Union, a first-of-its-kind social club and creative studio in Redwood City, California.
The space welcomes people who make music a central part of their lives—not necessarily as a career, but as a passion. It’s a cultural hub where music fuels well-being, creativity and connection.
On this episode, host Angela de Burger chats with John about what being a musician has brought to his life, how he fosters collaboration and connection at Sound Union, and how music can be an energizing force in daily life.
