Get ready for a heart-to-heart with Nick Gusman on a musical journey which takes us from St. Louis to the streets of England! This episode is like getting a backstage pass to his creative mind as we explore the ins and outs of his latest project, “Plenty of Room.” As he gears up for a show at Joe's Cafe on August 28th, Nick shares the details about the double album—yes, two volumes of music! The album is a testament to his growth as an artist, mixing humor with serious undertones, and it’s clear he’s excited to unveil these new tracks to the world. We chat about how his travels abroad fueled his songwriting, giving him fresh perspectives that are woven throughout the album.

Nick also reminisces about his previous tours, the importance of community in music, and the fun (and sometimes chaotic) process of arranging shows in foreign lands. He shares stories of networking through fellow musicians, which led to some unforgettable performances in coffee shops and intimate venues. The way he describes the respect and attentiveness of the audiences in Europe is refreshing and a stark contrast to the typical bar scene here at home. Plus, we get to listen to a snippet of “St. Louis Town,” a catchy tune that encapsulates the spirit of the city while also showcasing his witty lyricism. It's a celebration of local culture that’ll make you want to sing along, so sit back, relax, and let the good times roll!
