| Ep. 21 | Aaron Hardin

Of all the musicians I know personally, Aaron Hardin is one of my favorites. I’m grateful I got to play with him a lot during the years I was first getting to music. He’s also a skilled photographer. And he’s a professor of communication arts who’s thought deeply about social media, news, and digital technology.
