With a focus on music business, logistics, and creating opportunities for the music community we hear Matt's experience bringing music to CHOP, getting involved in the music community through MoJam Mondays, and playing drums in space! The origins of Marshall Law Band trace back to the fortuitous meeting of rapper Marshall Hugh and saxophonist Marty Thordarson, who became roommates during their college years. In 2017, they decided to form MLB and quickly enlisted the talents of Evan Robertson on bass, Matt McAlman on drums, Josh Richins on guitar, and Zack Olson on keys, all hailing from Snohomish County, Washington. Driven by their shared passion for effecting positive change and addressing social justice issues, the band wholeheartedly joined the local Seattle protests following the tragic death of George Floyd in 2020. Following a week of powerful performances at the protests, they channeled their experiences into heartfelt songs, which eventually became their debut album, 12th and Pine. The album was expertly produced by Jack Endino, renowned for his work with legendary acts such as Nirvana and Soundgarden. Since then, the Marshall Law Band has embarked on two successful European tours and garnered attention from prominent media outlets, including BBC News, CNN, the Seattle Times, and other major national and regional press.Marshall Law Band WebsiteFacebookTwitterInstagramYoutube Connect with Take Notice: Email: takenoticepodcast@gmail.com Website Instagram Facebook Rate & Review on Apple PodcastMusic by Version Big-Fi featuring Darius HegginsProduced, Hosted & Edited by Allison Preisinger-HegginsThank you for Taking Notice!

She also had to overcome a lot of the cultural differences between both continents. This experience played a crucial role in developing her character and perseverance.Imole went to University for Engineering but remained an active member of her Church and was involved in the Choir and Youth department throughout. She graduated University with Honours and then married the love of her life in 2014.Imole had always been interested in modernizing the way her church operated so when her husband bought her a camera for christmas she jumped at the opportunity to develop short videos for announcements. Little did she know that the announcements were just the beginning of her finding her lifelong passion. She fell in love with the process of video production and created Lumiere Films. Her vision was to use videos as a means for spreading positivity based on the fundamentals of Christian values. Since the purchase of the camera Imole has created multiple short movies that have been viewed by hundreds of thousands of people online.Imole currently works as an Engineer and uses her technical background to plan and organize her movie development. She loves ice cream but has been trying to abstain from it in the quest to lose weight. She isn’t always successful in avoiding it but is hopeful that next year she will do better. She enjoys going to live shows with her husband, eating seafood and travelling. She recently had a set of twins and they have kept her quite busy, but she still somehow finds the time to make movies and smuggle the occasional ice cream from creamistry.The Lumiere Films Website The Lumiere Films Instagram Lumiere Films Facebook Connect with Take Notice: Email: takenoticepodcast@gmail.com Website Instagram Facebook Rate & Review on Apple PodcastMusic by Version Big-Fi featuring Darius HegginsProduced, Hosted & Edited by Allison Preisinger-HegginsThank you for Taking Notice!
