Alex from First and Forever comes to the Chord Progression Podcast today with the most inspirational episode ever, and to prove to you that Emo Is Not Dead (Matt Cutshall would be proud). Alex dishes on the band starting on Craigslist (yes, Craigslist), how the band interacts with their fans and doubled down on their sound, and we close with inspiration. Alex is taking a leap of faith with this band, quitting his full time job, in order to make his dream work. And the confidence that he has will prove to you that life is too short to not go after your dreams.
