There’s no doubt that Patrick Krief has “made it.” Guitar player in Canadian indie-rock legends The Dears, Patrick also has a prominent solo career under the name ‘Krief.’ Derek and Patrick sit down to have a chat about his upcoming double-album release Automanic and the perils of putting economic gain over the creation of good art.

Toronto songwriter Jay Pollock is a man of balance. He loves playing and performing music, but it is far from the only important thing in his life. In a refreshing turn from a lot of our conversations, Jay took issue with the myth that one has to quit their job in order to be a true artist and talked a lot about how his mindset for songwriting has changed since he’s become more financially solvent.

Toronto singer-songwriter Erika Werry can pump you up with an anthemic rock hit or induce goosebumps with a heartfelt folk song. She has made a name for herself by consistently writing great songs and putting on an honest and energetic live show with her band Erika Werry & The Alphabet.

In one of the more process-focused episodes to date, Derek and Travis sat down with her to talk about allowing yourself to evolve as a songwriter and to learn as you go.

For a man who finds himself a member of one of the most established and successful rock bands in Canada, Big Sugar’s Kelly “Mr. Chill” Hoppe is eminently humble. Not only is he one of the country’s best harmonica players, he’s got some real songwriting chops and is steeped in the country and gospel tradition. The Windsor native sat down with Travis for a look back on his career which didn’t get underway until well into his 20s and didn’t become his full-time gig until well into his 30s.

Max Marshall has undergone no small transition over the last few years. From trying to make a go of songwriting in Toronto, to studying folklore at Memorial University in Newfoundland, to becoming a father and moving back to the Windsor area, he’s grown as a person and a musician. Derek sat down with Max in his quaint Essex County home after a meal of steak and lobster to discuss authenticity in songwriting, pursuing art while raising a family, and folk music’s lack of place in contemporary culture.

The first time we sat down with Ron to record an interview over a year ago, we caught him between construction shifts, exhausted, and frustrated with balancing those things and a music career all at once. The interview never aired and we promised we’d come back to it when the time was right. That time is now as Travis sat down with the consummate career songwriter for a do-over in his Windsor apartment. Ron opened up about the precariousness of working construction and trying to maintain a music career, transitioning back to music full-time and getting to work on his third full-length album with producer Andy Magoffin.

The Nova Scotia native been writing and recording music for nearly forty years and has performed alongside some of the best musicians in the country. Derek sat down with Kevin at The Tranzac Club in Toronto to talk about the challenges of making music and art your full-time job, the many hats songwriters must wear to do this, and how playing live music has changed over the years. After the interview, we preview next week’s episode with Ron Leary by playing clips of an interview we did with him last year that we never aired.

Award-winning songwriter Graydon James finally made it to the IQMJ studio after a long courtship. The front-man and songwriter for The Young Novelists talked to Travis and Derek about the unlikely circumstance of being a full-time musician who owns his own home, spending 12 years as a mail carrier, and playing in a band with his wife Laura Spink. In this episode, Graydon also provides some insight into the challenges of collaborative songwriting, touring in Canada, and maintaining a home and family while pursuing a career in music.

Welcome to Season Two! Derek and Travis return from their break and start 2016 off with a guestless episode. Just as they did for the very first episode, our hosts sit down with one another and get meta by discussing the podcast itself and how it has changed them as songwriters and where they think it’s headed in the coming year. Then for the very first time, you’ll hear Derek and Travis sing their own songs and talk about their own process and evolution as songwriters and the difficulties of avoiding the dreaded slump. Season Two promises to be an excellent one so stay tuned in the coming weeks for brand new guests.
