I’m super excited to share a new project I’ve been working on for almost a year: VGMTracks
This is a new YouTube channel I created with the goal of making high quality video game music backing tracks made by real musicians.
These are recorded by the rhythm section in my band @georgeheidiii (drums) @antondefade (bass) and Jonathan Digiulian (guitar). I record with them and then remove myself from the final mix so you’re left with a backing track that feels like you’re playing with a live band (because you are).
I want to make a valuable resource for musicians that want to play video game music live but don’t have a way to effectively practice it.
The first few tracks are up now and we have more on the way so it would mean a lot if you showed the channel some love❤️ @VGMTracksArcadia

Hey everyone, I have a little time next week so I'm going to be opening a few private lesson slots. Here are some things we can talk about:
-Saxophone specific topics (technique, sound, etc) -Improvisation (all instruments) -Playing by ear/how to develop your ear -Getting gigs/anything you want to know about being a working musician
I'm also happy to talk about:
-How to start posting on social media -How to grow a social media account -Using editing software -Optimizing videos for each social media platform -Tracking income/expenses as a musician/content creator -Other personal finance topics I've touched on in my videos -Anything else you want to talk about (within reason...)
I have people asking me about private lessons all of the time but I only do this 2-3 times a year. Here's the link to book: calendly.com/foolishfrankie
I'm only going to let a few people book before deactivating the link so if you've ever wanted to jump on a zoom call with me now is your chance! Looking forward to chatting with some of you:)

Which coffee cup do you prefer?
Option 1: Tall, glossy mug, design wrapped around the entire mug.
Option 2: Short, matte mug, design on one side.
Both hold 15 oz and are dishwasher/microwave safe.
Had some people ask about a coffee mug on my merch store so I've been working on making it happen:)
