Our guest // Jono Kirkham
Jono is one half of production duo 'YesYou'.
YesYou have been writing and producing music together
since the release of their debut single ‘Half Of It’ which ended
the year as the 11th most played song in 2011 on Triple J. The
guys followed up with another impressive track ‘Frivolous Life’
that peaked at #5 on Hype Machine, received high praise from the
likes of Neon Gold, Earmilk, Indie Shuffle.
Jono is also now the National Manager of Creative Collaborations
for the Starlight Children's Foundation Australia.
In this conversation, Jono goes back to the beginning where he moved schools several times as a child, and as a result developed a skill to connect quickly and mix with people from all walks of life.
Jono and Nat discuss and explore the power of music and how it shapes us. The process of having a craft, removing expectation and going all in.
If you're a creative, lover of music or love hearing inspirational stories of people who go after their calling - we can't wait for you to listen to this one.
