Join Tamara for an interview with musician (upright and electric bass) Marc Chesanow, whose music plays at the beginning and the end of every episode of this show! 🎉 

He played drums and trombone in HS band and then came to bass later: attending Eastman School of Music in NY for undergrad and then University of Memphis for his master's degree. He's been a working musician ever since, with occasional stints as a music professor. 

Marc has lived in Savannah since 2016 and emphasizes the necessity of diversifying your time amongst bands, private gigs, orchestras, etc in order to pay the bills as a musician.

He's 1/3 of beloved Savannah jazz group The Eric Jones Trio, and performs regularly with the Savannah Music Fest, Savannah Jazz Fest, and Savannah Philharmonic, as well as various "Dancing With the Stars" fundraiser shows and Juneteenth celebrations. 

⭐️ This episode is extra special! It's Tamara's 3 year anniversary of hosting the podcast, and after this one she'll be handing the hosting mike over to Kate Stanton Melendez. Listen through the end of the show for all the details! ⭐️
