#6: Behind-the-scenes with guitarist & executive producer, Dru Decaro

Dru is a Grammy-nominated artist, and the executive producer of Vic Mensa’s HOOLIGANS album, as well Christian French’s Natural Colors record. Dru has performed with Vic Mensa, Andy Grammar, Miguel, Snoop Dogg, Chrisette Michele, Faith Hill, and many more.

We go deep on the ins and outs of what it is to represent yourself, how it feels to be your own product, the business of his work as a guitarist and a producer, the value of time, the value of a song, grappling with self-promotion while keeping a learning mentality, branding yourself, and growing as an artist in an era where we are expected to create, brand, promote, and self-manage.

References go deep and wide, from Viv Albertine to Odd Future. Dru discusses how he continues to progress as an artist, and his latest endeavor of creating a graphic novel (titled “Falconry: A World Apart”. )
