On this episode of the podcast we welcome Isaiah Sanderman onto the show! A young Chicago musician, Isaiah has played at several Motley open mics and release parties, and is a familiar face at DIY events and local venues alike. Playing as both an individual performer and also as the lead with his project Zaiah’s Ant Party, Isaiah brings fresh energy into the scene of this upcoming generation of musicians, emphasizing vibes of communal expression and connection.
Isaiah brings his perspective to bear on artist and audience relations, the ethics of performance, and personal development as a musician. We work through some of the challenges that young musicians face, especially in the Chicagoland area, and by this come to discuss Isaiah’s impressions of American culture, youth, and creative production. The next show where you can catch Isaiah’s Ant Party is on June 8th at The Cubby Bear in Wrigleyville, so be sure to check out social media for more details!

On-Air with Sam Schorsch: The Writing Game
This episode of the podcast welcomes our friend and fellow Editor for Motley Sam Schorsch onto the scene!

As another artist staking her art on her livelihood, and her livelihood on her art, Sam gives us a vivid look into the nuances of production as an up-and- coming writer in a world that largely does not recognize creative expression as valid human activity.
