E25: *Bonus Episode* How to Be a Session Musician w/ Brian Viglione (The Dresden Dolls, NIN, Violent Femmes, etc.)
1Description
This podcast, and the book it's based on, is written for the perspective of the musician who writes, records, and performs live. However listener Brian D wrote to Emily and asked how he can move his career forward without being a songwriter. He said, "I am a drummer trying to get my name out there to bigger artists." And thus this bonus episode titled "How to Be a Session Musician" was born.
Host and Author Emily White immediately thought of her longtime friend, Brian Viglione, for this episode. Brian is a world-class drummer whose band The Dresden Dolls has experienced the heights of success while he's parlayed that into a career recording with Nine Inch Nails and playing with one of his childhood heroes, The Violent Femmes. Tune in to hear how Brian has built a successful career as a session, touring musician and more.
