In this episode of ๐๐จ๐จ๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ฐ๐ง ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ง: ๐๐ถ๐ด๐ช๐ค ๐๐ข๐ต๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด, we meet Jim Logan, a musician whose journey into the world of music began in an unexpected way. Growing up in a family that wasnโt part of the band culture, Jim discovered his passion through an old piano on the porch, which sparked his interest in music. While the saxophone was out of reach financially, the clarinet became a possibility, and thatโs where his adventure truly began.
By 8th grade, he saw the pressure his older siblings felt in choosing a path in life, prompting him to consider his own options: chase his love for history or follow the path he excelled inโmusic. Choosing music, Jim found incredible support from band directors and private teachers who helped guide him along his journey. His love of history eventually led him to a fulfilling career with the Navy Military Band, as military bands are the largest employers of musicians in the U.S.
Join us as Jim shares his inspiring story and reveals how he creates a space for music to truly matter to the people he meets through his performances and teaching. Whether youโre a music lover or just curious about lifeโs twists and turns, you wonโt want to miss this heartfelt conversation!
