Thank you so much for your amazing work yesterday! There was a great mix of musos, filmmakers and podcasters and I think everyone took something away from it. I really enjoyed walking through “Three Feet Deep” and understanding the rationale behind its composition. I appreciate all the hard work you put into preparing and delivering it.
