info_outlineWelcome to Music Musing! My name is Craig Sybert and my brother George Sybert and I co-host this podcast. George and I would frequently call each other and throw out a conversation title and ramble on for 45 minutes or so, sometimes taking tangents and sometimes staying focused on the subject. The podcast idea started after a call to my brother with the statement “Is Boston the best rock band ever?”. After our conversation, I got the idea to start recording these conversations and share them with the world. I had a background in voice over work and audio editing, so it was a natural progression. We are rock and metal guys, but we were also brought up listening to folk, disco, and gospel. Our first few episodes were a little rough on the quality, but stick with it, they get much better!
