Bill Prokopow: Money, prostitutes, a revelation, a life altering stroke and a mental breakdown.

In this episode, I talk to Bill Prokopow. Bill is an amazing musical talent with many projects under his belt. But this conversation with Bill doesn't really talk about music. More so, Bill talks about a multi year experience he had with this his father. Back in June I got an email from bill that went like this: "So I was recommended to your show  because of a crazy experience I had with my father a few years back. It involves money, prostitutes, a revelation, a life altering stroke, a mental breakdown in Costa Rica, therapy, a forced commitment to a mental hospital, a divorce, estrangement, reuniting, and way too many Flat Earth videos."

More about Bill
Bill began writing music as soon as he sat down at a piano at age 5, and since then he hasn’t stopped. His song Wonderlust recently shot to the #1 spot on the Shazam Discovery and US Charts for nearly two weeks after it was featured in the popular Netflix movie "The Kissing Booth 2". Bill has amassed over 20 million plays on Spotify for his solo project Will Post, and his music has been heard prominently in feature films and shorts, national prime time television shows and concert halls and rock venues all across the US.

The musical journey of Bill’s life has been deep and diverse, and he has spent much of it crossing genres - from composing, conducting, and singing with orchestras across the country (including The San Francisco Symphony and Pittsburg Symphony Orchestra) to touring the nation playing midi-hacked Nintendo controllers in the chiptune-rock band I Fight Dragons, to creating dazzling projection mapped visuals reminiscent of Fantasia for his award winning orchestral-electronic solo project.

But Bill feels most at home when combining his classical sensibilities with the ethos of the current moment, creating work that serves the now and launches itself into the future, toward eternity.
