Jake Johnson recounts his eerie encounters with a haunted pipe said to have belonged to Ted Bundy. He also reflects on his move from Utah to Nashville, a decision inspired by his stepfather, a member of Bon Jovi. Jake discusses the development of his musical career, the establishment of his band Guillotine, and the significance of simplicity in music. The discussion explores branding within the music industry, the creative journey of their concept EP "Hellbound," and the difficulties of performing in the current social media-centric landscape.

There's a particular energy to music made outside the mainstream, and ZHZ Podcast: Independent Music, Artist Interviews & The Utah Scene digs right into the heart of it. Hosts Zak Davis and Matt Allen, from the Z Frequency project, use their platform to amplify the voices often heard only in local venues or home studios. Each episode feels like a conversation among friends, one that just happens to be packed with the kind of practical insights and honest stories that artists usually share after the show. You'll hear from emerging independent musicians not only about their creative process but also about the real, unglamorous work of building a career from the ground up. While the pulse of Utah's vibrant local scene provides a consistent backdrop, the discussions here resonate with anyone curious about the DIY ethos shaping modern culture. This podcast serves as a vital connection point, offering listeners an authentic look at the people and passion behind the tracks. It’s for fans who want to discover their next favorite artist before anyone else and for creators looking for camaraderie and actionable advice. Tune in for genuine interviews that skip the superficial talk and get straight to what matters in independent music.
