We want to help you not only get in, but stay in. To this end, hosts Seth Mosley and X O'Connor will dig deep with luminaries of the music industry. These are people who have "made it" and today have very notable careers. Many are Grammy winners and work with prominent record labels.

The "Made It In Music Podcast" is designed to serve both sides; we are certain you will find a place in this community.
