[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_message color=”alert-info” style=”3d”]I recently had the pleasure of a conversation with two wonderful people who just happen to be veteran musicians going on over four decades. John and Judy Rodman are a married couple who put their hearts together recently to create their first album, Here We Are. In this interview, we discuss how they each learned their craft, and how the two met and fell in love. There are some previews of their new music in this episode, and afterward John and Judy share some quick on-the-road stories with me. Finally, I learned from John his philosophy on good drumming, and from Judy, how she got into vocal coaching. But wait…there’s more! The conclusion will be in the next episode!![/vc_message][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text h1_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169234}” h2_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169235}” h3_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169236}” h4_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169236}” h5_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169237}” h6_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169237}” p_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169238}” link_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169238}” list_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603169239}”]

“John and Judy Rodman – There We Were”
featuring the songs “Somethin’ Like That” “You Want It Back” and “Still Breathing”[/vc_column_text][vc_message color=”alert-success” style=”3d”]When John and Judy met and started making music together, the #1 record in the country was Roberta Flack’s ‘Killing Me Softly”, and Bill Withers was #7 with ‘Lean On Me’. After decades of studio and stage work, Judy’s hit solo career, getting off the road and John’s retirement from drumming (or so he thought), they are now coming full circle to start something brand new. For the first time they are writing, performing and recording their own music.[/vc_message][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_video 0=”0=”0=”0=”title=”FRANK”””” 1=”SHINER:” 2=”Driving Home For Christmas” 3=”(Live” 4=”at” 5=”54″ 6=”Below,” 7=”NYC” 8=”8=”8=”8=”2014)””””” 9=”9=”9=”title=””When””” 10=”the” 11=”Day” 12=”Is” 13=”13=”13=”Over””””” link=”https://youtu.be/Ew03ddGR9SI”][ivan_info_box ico_family=”fa fa-” position=”left” vertical=”no” align=” default-align” style=”circle” size=”64″ main_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603290166}” icon_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603290167}color:#dd3333;background-color:#1e73be;” title_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603290168}” content_css=”{.vc_customizer_1426603290168}” ico=”music”]Visit John and Judy’s website:
