In this episode, Taken By Tides dives into the realities of being an independent band, sharing honest insights on balancing day jobs with creative goals, the importance of open communication, and the behind-the-scenes work that powers their momentum. The band discusses the emotional intensity of their live shows—described as a journey through heaviness, sadness, and catharsis—now elevated by a new light production and carefully curated setlist. They reflect on the diversity of their musical influences, ranging from video game soundtracks to classic rock, and offer practical advice for emerging artists around financial planning, goal alignment, and smart delegation.
