Today’s guest, Nick Morrison, is a guitarist, teacher, author, and composer whose work you’ve probably heard in productions from Warner Bros, Universal Studios, Sony, MTV, ABC, NBC, HGTV, and HBO. Nick talks with me about how musicians can make money making music beyond performing and teaching and how writing music for TV and movie productions works. We also talk about why structure and limitation enhance our creativity, how the time he spent in Japan influenced his creative process, and more.
Please leave a review and in it, tell us about a time when structure or limitations made being creative easier for you.
