Ink To Spill is what has been described as a "virtual band", with songwriter Bob Sauer living in the Tidewater area of Virginia and the rest of the band spread out around the country including areas such as Seattle and Chicago.  But they all come together to make music.  And they work with the RVA-based Marketing Mixtape .  Bob talks about getting the band together, dealing with the pandemic when they were already something of a virtual band separated by geography, inspiration and the creative process.  Also hear Ink To Spill songs Hyd'n (latest single), Lenny  and Chalk Lines Ink To Spill on Spotify Ink To Spill Social: FB , IG , YT , Twitter ,

Andrew Godfrey does most of the heavy lifting when it comes to his musical projects Transylvania Stud and Navaeh, with a little help from his friends.  He's been in bands and had some help with instrumentation, but on the latest TS release "White Witch", he wrote and plays everything.  We hang out for a meandering conversation that includes making records and shooting videos on a budget (having talented friends with great gear helps), his time in Nashville, underrated bands, lost civilizations and conspiracy theories.
