On this week’s episode, I talk to Jon Muq, whose extraordinary tale is one of resilience, courage, fate, and his deep desire to simply “follow the sound.”
Raised in Uganda and now living in Austin, Texas since 2018, when he disembarked from a months-long gig with Norwegian Cruises and found himself in the middle of the SXSW Festival, Jon is set to release his debut album, Flying Away, produced by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys on Dan’s own Easy Eye Sound label.
We talked all about growing up in a very challenging environment and the chance encounters that shaped Jon’s musical experience in a place where he literally had to “sing for his supper.”
I’m psyched to bring you this amazing conversation that will surely change your perspective of what is truly possible, and what it means to be destined to follow your true path — whatever it may be — and Jon is an amazing example of all that.
