Rob Morgan Is A Curious Person

Question 49 // Hey, how much underwear did you bring? (feat. Ian Allison)

A couple months ago, my friend Ian Allison posted an Instagram story while on tour with Eric Hutchinson explaining how he decided to fit everything he brought IN ONE FREAKIN BACKPACK! He broke down the bag he used, showing some of the things he brought with him, how he did it, and explained the freedom it brought.

 

The only thing is… I had more questions. Personal questions. Like… let’s talk minimalism travel ideology… Let’s talk the business of underwear and socks.

 

Recording Location: Phone Convo with Ian from his home in Minneapolis.

+++ Daily Guinness #003 - Why The Hell Do I Need Balance?

“Give Us This Day Our Daily Guinness” - Jan 3, 2019

 

Apparently Sarah thinks I can be a... man of extremes. I tend to either be all in or all out and I could use some balance in my life. I'm sure I'm the only one who deals with this...

Give Us This Day Our Daily Guinness - Jan 2, 2019 - You Will Face Resistance!

Is this just a big mistake? Is this the dumbest idea I've ever had? How can I learn to recognize resistance and trust the process? Maybe I'll set my Guinness down and look through my book shelf in my studio for inspiration.

Give Us This Day Our Daily Guinness - Jan 01, 2019 - What If...?

What if... every day in 2019... I sat down with a pint of Guinness and turned the microphones on... What would that look like? Every day? Is that even possible? I guess there's only one way to find out...

Question 47 // Can I learn to trust the unknown? (feat. Mark Heimermann)

Mark Heimermann is one of the most brilliant song-writers, producers and mentors that I’ve had the honor of getting to work with. Producing, writing and touring with artists like Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, Jaci Velazquez and DC Talk, Mark seems to ,seemingly single-handedly, be responsible for creating the soundtrack of my earlier years while growing up in a home that only allowed listening to 'christian’ music.

 

Why would someone at the height of their career and success decide to completely change directions and move away from Nashville? Why does Mark feel like being a ‘Jack-of-all-trades’ in music is beneficial? And, above all else, I’ve struggled so hard to find certainty in life and ‘figure’ this whole music thing out. The unknown future in the creative journey can be daunting and intimidating. What can Mark teach me about learning to trust the unknown? This week, Mark welcomes me into his home studio to down over Oktoberfest beers to answer these questions and more.

 

Recording Location: Mark’s Home Studio, (haha like hell I’m going to post his home on the map. But… It’s somewhere in MN south of the metro)

Question 44 // How do you write a song? (feat. Dan Rodriguez)

Dan Rodriguez and I were best men in each other’s weddings and just so happens to be a brilliant singer-songwriter who I’ve stood behind on stage for the past fourteen years. How do you write a song? Is writers block an actual thing or is it just an excuse for laziness? How have the identities and boxes I’ve placed on myself hindered my ability to write songs? This week, Dan sits down with Rob in his studio to answer these questions and write a few songs.
