Host Adam Meckler talks with Trumpeter/Composer/Educator/Touring Artist Kris Johnson about his time touring with the Count Basie Orchestra, why he left his University gig to come back to Detroit, and how he's building passive income through online educational content. Kris offers his "Big 3" of being a musician, and how he landed a gig doing the score for a web series. Kris and Adam also unpack the term "Jazz" and discuss the recent use of Black American Music (or BAM) in its place. And of course, they talk a little trumpet.Learn from Kris: https://www.officehourswithkrisjohnson.com/Kris' website: https://www.krisjohnsonmusic.com/Kris on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/krisjohnsonmusic/?hl=en__________________________Stuff we talked about:Getting the gig scoring a web series on: http://www.Mandy.comKing Ester (nominated for an Emmy, Kris did the music): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tYH0QpTz0g&list=PLVo7nGot4fPipnD8oiIDrnPVsQ4AyGH1Z____________________________Download Gig Boss app: https://linktr.ee/gigbossJoin the Gig Boss Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/gigbossBumper Music: Sunshine is Out by Adam Meckler https://open.spotify.com/track/1u12flYbzE4jxD1cwG5pGT?si=5228a5324e474da9-----------------------------------How to Make it in the New Music Business Book: https://amzn.to/3Pls5ixAri's Take Academy: https://aristakeacademy.teachable.com/?affcode=267075_yqqy4mcn - Use code "GIGBOSS" at checkout for 10% off
