#146 Basslines, Brews & Brotherhood: Hanging with Ryan & Kevin
In this episode, we’re joined by Ryan, bassist for The Josh Taylor Project (JTP), and his longtime friend Kevin for a laid-back and laughter-filled hangout. Over a couple of cold ones—generously sponsored by Roaring 20s Brewing Co.—we dive into stories from the band, the power of true friendship, and how these two have supported each other through life’s ups and downs. From backstage moments to personal challenges, Ryan and Kevin bring both humor and heart to the mic. We barely scratched the surface and can’t wait to have them back—especially with a mysterious surprise they teased for next time 👀 Grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the good vibes! @jtp_thejoshtaylorproject @roaring20sbrewery
