Amber Galloway: Bringing Music to Life for over 22 Years – Wishlist Foundation Whether it’s rock, hip hop, R&B, country, or our favorite band, Pearl Jam — it doesn’t matter — because when music fans gather together in one venue, listening to their favorite band or vocalist, the worries of the world are cast aside and the rush of emotion immediately takes over.
It was nearly a month ago that YouTube personality, multi-instrumentalist and music producer, Rick Beato, interviewed record producer, mixer, engineer, and musician, Brendan O’Brien.
