Becoming a patron of the podcast means that you are directly helping the podcast continue. This is a chance for you to help out with the running costs of the podcast, if you feel like you get a lot out of my interviews you can be a part of it by donating a small amount of money.

I will be creating one extra monthly show specifically for my patrons where I listen back to previous shows and chat about some key points that my guests bring up. There are so many great ideas and concepts that these amazing musicians bring up and I would like to share with you some of my favourites! This is great for beginner jazz violinists who want a little direction once in a while.

Baiju Bhatt

Baiju Bhatt is a Swiss/Indian violinist based in both Switzerland and Paris. He has his own original project 'Red Sun' with which he has toured Europe and the rest of the world. We had a nice long chat about all the things that come up when you play music for a living and I got a great insight into his development as a jazz musician.
