On a rare day off from the Jonas Brothers’ Greetings From Your Hometown Tour, musician Fabian Chavez joined us to talk about how a chance bar gig led to joining the band, his journey developing a unique musical identity, the impact of his family band roots, and his path as a solo artist.

Neara Russell talks everything from how Chopin and Sheryl Crow inspired her path towards music, the pressures of being a woman in the male-dominated sides of the industry, and how she’s approaching the next era of balancing her identity both within and outside the world of music.
