Professional musician Shannon Curfman talks about being scouted at age 12 by the music industry and how she was signed by Clive Davis at age 13.
Once labeled as a “blues” singer songwriter, Curfman shares her views of the ever-changing music industry – from venues to social media to royalty shares.
Currently Curfman tours with Kid Rock and is scheduled for vocal cord surgery during their hiatus. Curfman expects to be healed and back on tour with Kid Rock for their August show in Minnesota.
The interview also dives into Curfman’s cancer battle. Host Jason Spiess shares portions of his cancer battle as the two process their journeys together and separately.
