This week we talk to Tanner Cyr. Tanner is a self-taught musician and current bassist for the up-and-coming punk rock band WaterFront.

In this episode, Tanner and I talk about his random and unexpected path into music, how he has managed to stay authentic as a creator, handling uncertainty, how failure can be fun, why timing is everything, using self-criticism to your advantage, and other topics.
