Chapter 153: "A Small Group of Really Talented" ...as read by Jeff Cloud

Jeff Cloud has run Velvet Blue Music for 23 years. He was in Starfyer 59 for (roughly) 7 years and Joy Electric for 5 (ish) years. Jeff talks about meeting Jason in high school, the early days with the Martin brothers, getting to work with incredible artists like Richard Swift (RIP) and Frank Lenz, and what keeps the label going all these years later.

Huge thanks to Jeff for the taking the time to chat, even though he was battling the flu!
