I just love Daniel Baylis' poetry collections and so when he began releasing music over the last year, I was overjoyed. His music is like his poetry - insightful, raw, beautiful and very true. I'm delighted that he agreed to join me on the podcast. We talked about the benefits of traveling as artists (and as humans in general), how he loves the challenge of adding music to his poetry, and how taking risks can be an important part of art-making. If you want to buy his books, visit <a href="https://sparkspublishing.ca/" target="_blank">here</a>. If you want to listen to his music, it's streaming all over. You can view the lyric videos he's made on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/danbaylis" target="_blank">YouTube</a>. His general website is <a href="https://danielbaylis.ca/" target="_blank">here.</a><ul><li>Producer, editor and host: Drea Macdonald</li><li>Podcast theme song - "If you let it" by <a href="https://dreamacdonald.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Drea Macdonald</a> produced by <a href="https://adamgallant.ca/" target="_blank">Adam Gallant</a> </li><li>Podcast logo/artwork by <a href="https://www.birdmouse.ca/" target="_blank">Birdmous</a>e</li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/artistsonartpc/" target="_blank">Follow the Podcast on Instagram</a></li><li><a href="https://ko-fi.com/artistsonartpodcast" target="_blank">Tip me on Ko-fi</a> to help support this podcast!</li></ul>Email: artistsonartpod@gmail.com
