Today, on Rockstar Superhero, I got to meet another weirdo and now I get to share him with you.
Barrett Holcomb is a super fun guy, a very talented musician, arranger, and sonic landscape producer who is on a sure fire path to being what we call, 'A Somebody.'
Barrett, more affectionately known as Jon of Mars, is a lover of all genres and has a deep musical vocabulary, especially when you consider how young he is. After our interview, he and I talked about favorite bands for another 70 minutes. He's just a super great guy and I'm glad to introduce him to you today.
Enjoy my lightweight and weird chat with this young spitfire, sure to end up as dinner conversation someday in the not too distant future. This is Jon of Mars and you're listening to the super tasty, velvety smooth sonic stylings of Rockstar Superhero. Dig it.
