I'm amazed that this doesn't have more views. This is one of the best interviews I've seen regarding music

[@markshepardsongs]

as a singer/songwriter who plays a lot of different instruments and styles. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Cory Wong's willingness to collaborate in multiple genres and styles. We are in a time when we need to LISTEN to all kinds of music, musicians, and keep our mind OPEN. Great conversation! and sometimes, just sometimes a person has a day when they just need to hear some SMOOTH freakin' JAZZ.

I've never heard a Cory Wong tune I don't enjoy. This makes a lot of sense to me now. I've always enjoyed Jazz with punkish vibes with Funk rythms.
