March 17th, 2023  |  22 mins 17 secs

Is there a perfect time in one’s life to start a band? A perfect age? 17? 25? 30? 40? The Sanchez Agency’s motto “Never Too Late!” has many applications to life in general, but it also touches on the biography of frontman/ songwriter B. Jacob Sandock, who wrote songs for 20 years before connecting with veterans of the Indiana indie rock scene forming a formidable band unlike any other.

He has a YouTube channel dedicated to his Accordion covers called “Great Honk.”

Season 2 Episode 2: Tennessee with Chris Crigger

February 17th, 2023  |  22 mins 17 secs

The process of crafting lyrics will often help the songwriter discover details that might otherwise go unnoticed. Those details often become the most poignant to the listener - such as a child’s blanket forgotten in the backseat of a car finding its way into a song of resolve after a breakup. Chris Crigger has long been a guitarist for live bands in Virginia and Tennessee. Recently, he began writing his own material.
