So much to say which is said above.

Trenton is and has been an Artist (Singer, Rapper, Songwriter and Band leader), COO of experiential marketing agencies specialising in the music industry, charity founder, fundraiser, CEO of a famous sound engineering college.... and in his formative years a white member of the ANC in South Africa.

He now runs a Cannabis Academy and has strong opinions on a good life, a good world and wellbeing! We go all over his life and learnings and why Cannabis doesn't have to be only viewed as a recreational and hedonistic 'drug'. Fascinating and a bit of a wild card for us but simply enlightening! Enjoy and please leave a comment and if you can be arsed like and subscribe it really helps the bots get us noticed!

BUT, we are back and we will become more regular again.we already have loads of great guests in the can. So, stick with us and get ready for some more regular output. YES NOW!

Very excited to kick off with this new season We are going to enter season 2 after 4 episodes of season 1!

If you don't know - they are an incredible music charity who have built up the funding, the personnel (expertise) and the broad range of programmes to help musicians and music industry pros in all areas of mental health. We can't say enough here, so have a listen to this in order to hear how important, sincere and amazing this organisation is, what they provide and how they ended up doing this incredibly important work. Brett ended up chatting way more than most podcasts about himself but he assures us it was chat to emphasise specifically how great Tonic Music and his struggles as a music pro without having access to these services in the 90s or early 2000s.

Tonic Music is invaluable in assisting artists and music pros in navigating the torrid and often unknown waters of the music industry!
