Summary

Sometimes when you interview people, you just don't know how, or where it is going to go, and you end up being blown away. My interview today with Eric Burton of the Black Pumas, was nothing short of an amazing surprise. I had all sorts of questions about music in general, that I never got to because we went down a much more esoteric road. Eric Burton is the lead singer and song writer of the Black Pumas. You probably saw them perform their hit song "Colors" at the Presidential Inauguration. This song is so timeless, and timely at the same time, and strikes a chord that really resonates with so many people who are trying to start a new beginning after a very turbulent 2020.
