How These Musicians WFH: Ed O'Brien, Larkin Poe, Yvette Young, Cory Wong, Sarah Lipstate 

Today begins the new seller fee. Thank you reverb for taking more money from struggling musicians. It's truly a help during these trying times.

Ed... What a lovely human being

I love Yvette Young ❤ she's so talented and seems like a great person.

Ed is such a Gentleman-and a brilliant musician. Oh the hours I’ve seeped with him alongside.

I imagine Boards of Canada are proceeding as usual, with no break in their daily music routine.

I love Cory Wong's explanation of his creative process: the more I'm creative, the more creative I get. Like a vine that continue to grow, rather than a gas tank that empties.

What an amazing vid and a fantastic group of musicians. So creative so adaptable, so talented. This vid is a huge motivator for me to b creative. Huge thnx to u all. Just love it. This is top of my vid library that I can go back to over and over. U young guys r taking things forward and producing great great music that I always look forward to. I'm 72 and home based working but get so so much from u innovators. Love to c u all back on the road. Thnx so so much for putting it together and to everyone who made this just so welcome and inspiring.

This was a very hearthwarming video, thanks for doing this

You have such an awesome job getting to chat with all these amazing artists! what a dream

Great interviews. Thanks Joe/Reverb! The new Larkin Poe album is awesome by the way.

Yvette young is such a cool person.

Great video. I have been working in my studio daily (actually, nightly). Since my music is synth-based, there are always new sounds to explore and find ways to utilize. It is way better to be absorbed in creating music than to be reading the daily barrage of bad news.

Your shirt is so cool! One of the best compositions ever!

Very cool video premise, choice players, would like to see more content of this sort

Amazingly I wrapped construction on my home studio mid February, so my lock down has been a dream creatively speaking. The hardest has been the few songs or projects that really need to be “people in a room jamming” for the vibe. Otherwise I’m happy tracking all the guitars from my little cave and shooting them to the cloud. However, the work/life balance when working from home can be tricky. That’s why I installed an electric fence. My kids hate the electric fence.....

Great video piece... I hope other artist are taking advantage of the forced opportunities. I’m confident we will hear some interesting stuff in the future.

Fantastic video! I'm definitely checking out Larkin Poe! Loved the little snipit I heard there. Super motivational! My newest endeavor in all the madness is tuning my guitar to New Standard Tuning (c,g,d,a,e,g). I thought why not, nothing to lose. This pandemic definitely brought out my creativity a lot more, I've never played music more then now. Like Yvette said it's been good because for once I don't feel like a lazy ass taking a break day from making music 🤣 Playing in nst taught me that you can literally tune your guitar (or bass or whatever instrument really) to anything and as long as you can play in that tuning, you're gonna have a good time. Here's some cool tuning options I've been playing in a lot! (Some of these are baritone/extended range tunings as well): B, F#, C#, G#, D#, F# G, D, A, D, G, B B, E, D, A, E, G C, F, A#, F, A#, D#, G, A#, C B standard (b,e,a,d,f#,b) And for bass: C,G,C,G A,G,C,G C#,F#,B,F# B,D,A,D,G,C,E (7 string bass tuning 🤓). Hope y'all find some of these useful :D

That Ravel shirt is metal af

Love Yvette Young, hate the reverb seller fee increase. Only 3 more days to sell at 3.5% Screw you Etsy/Reverb

I dunno how anyone still has motivation to make music, honestly. The depression is just too much for me, personally.

Keep on doing great videos !!!

This whole situation really sucks. As if musicians, in particular ones that create and or involved with guitar driven music, weren’t getting squeezed enough. Glad to see these folks getting by at least.

Wow! that Radar thing was interesting🤔

I frickin love Ed. We need the full interview with him.

Cory has a joe dart bass ❤

That shirt lmao that piece is my shit

We need new dreams. Great insight Ed O’Brien. Lots of good advice in this video.

It must be almost impossible to make an income as a musician right now. Are you guys pulling in any fees at all?

Your'e not alone...Then you get old like me and find that recording in your own studio is where it's at..Welcome to my world. It's not that bad j

I didn't know mussels go into atrophy. Is this a general mollusc thing?

Maybe humanity deserves a hard reset.

EEEEEEED

🤦🏼‍♂️

Acoustic music? Lmao
