Show host Wes Luttrell shares his approach and experience as a music producer through five stories of projects he's worked on over the previous decade - first, as the artist producer, Para Doc, then as a producer for Midwest artists like The Strangers, Swamp Eyes, Jax Fleming, and Maggie Hollis. In this solo episode, he reflects on how setting a vision for the project early on carries the music across the finish line and sets the conditions for "magic to happen".
