Artist Connection Podcast


The Artist Connection Podcast has been offering long form audio interviews with artists from the past, present, and future since 2011. Hear what inspires them to get out of bed each morning and practice the craft that they love. My guests include people that I truly respect from many different backgrounds. Each episode provides a unique mix of music and conversation. Enjoy!

My guest today is the incredibly talented Yasmine Van Wilt! Where to begin? She is a singer/songwriter, classically trained actress, performance artist, activist, published author, and has a Ph. D. in Creative Writing! Our conversation covered many of those topics and I feel like I barely scratched the surface. I hope to have her on again very soon to learn more. Van Wild is the name of her Southern Blues-Pop solo project, and she was nice enough to allow me to include three tracks with this episode. I love her voice and the way she brings the songs to life with her delivery. Yasmine is very passionate about many things that impact the environment and society. We talked about the effects of the BP oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. She lived in England for quite a few years and she told me how that shaped her world view. Learn more about her at www.yasminevanwilt.com and www.musicbyvanwild.com. She is also active on Facebook and Twitter. If you reach out to Yasmine please let her know that you heard her here first. Enjoy!
