Horn player and recording artist John Little joins Mars Gelfo to explore the making of his album Horn Evolution and what it means to create an honest record of who you are as a musician.

They discuss tone production, centering and flow states, hand horn performance, interpretation, audiation, practicing during long walks, handling rejection, creating your own opportunities, and why playing unaccompanied music can help you discover your authentic creative voice.

John also shares why he chose to preserve some human imperfection in the album rather than editing it into something that no longer felt like his playing.
