From Setbacks to Success: Stepson's Journey Back to Enjoying Music

The world can be cruel to musicians. Cancelled shows, expensive tours, other responsibilities in life, can take the fun and enjoyment out of the love that is making music, and it can be tough to get it all back.

One Australian band went through the ringer in 2023, and is ready to take 2024 by storm because of one simple reason, they're having fun with their music again.

Jayden from Stepson returns to the Chord Progression Podcast for the first time in 3 years! On this fantastic episode, the guys talk all about:

• The importance Stepson put on having fun with their music following cancelled tours, expensive travel, and a yearning to enjoy their favorite thing in life.
• Why Stepson amicably split with Sharptone Records to take their music back into their own hands, and do things their own way.
• What Stepson has in store with their new music for their 2nd album, and why it could be dropping, literally, at any time.
