To Be Or Not To Be, That Is David's Question with David Scheid

Cracked with Chevonne Ariss

Today on Cracked I'm joined by LA artist David Scheid. David is a stained glass artist whose work is inspired by the light and landscapes of California. He spends most of my time on the road as a tour manager for bands including Girl Talk, Beirut, and Dinosaur Jr. and when at home he builds colorful, geometric stained glass pieces and custom windows. His work has been installed in houses, gardens and shops throughout the West Coast and greater United States.
Today we’re going to discuss the eternal question of what it is we’re meant to be doing professionally, an honest look at what working during the pandemic looked like and finding extraordinary inspiration and imagery in the everyday moments around us.
To see more of David’s work is Instagram is @davidscheidstainedglass and his website is davidscheidstainedglass.com.
For the Cracked Patreon page members, David has made us a studio playlist, made up of all the artists that he has tour managed for. The link to that is always at the bottom of the show notes!
