This week we feature French-Malagasy pianist, composer, and producer, Mathis Picard. We discuss his upcoming book, "Where. Music. Lives." which reflects the combination of the mind, body, and soul; melody, harmony, and rhythm; and the 7 chakras. Reminding us of the importance of being present, leading with purpose, and being intentional about why we play music, this conversation encourages us to step away from the capitalistic mentality of constant production and open our minds to what already exists inside of us.
