Join us for this week as we sit down with Charlie Dolan, the talented bassist from the band Tauk, to explore the evolution and influences that have shaped their music journey. Charlie shares insights into the band's origins, revealing how they've been playing together since middle school and made the transition from vocal performances to a primarily instrumental focus in 2012. We reminisce about their early days, from their first gig at a bar mitzvah to the pivotal role that jazz and classical music studies played in crafting their unique sound.

We touch on the challenges and triumphs of pursuing a music career while balancing personal relationships and explore the serendipitous friendships formed in a small private school setting that laid the groundwork for a successful music career. Charlie and the band have managed to sustain long-term relationships while juggling the demands of life on the road and we discuss how they've learned to navigate the complexities of touring, marriage, and band dynamics, sharing a unique practice of avoiding business discussions before breakfast to maintain harmony within the group.

As the music industry continues to evolve, artists face the challenge of adapting to new technologies and trends. Our conversation with Charlie provides a candid look at these shifts, including the impact of social media on music promotion and the struggle to balance authentic expression with online trends. We also explore the joys and challenges of parenthood, the impact of the pan dem!k, and the importance of maintaining meaningful connections with loved ones. Whether it's through serendipitous encounters at music festivals or celebrating personal milestones, this episode is a heartfelt exploration of the passion and perseverance required to thrive in the music industry.
