HeyDreamer is a band that is very particular and methodical in its approach. On this episode of the Peach Jam Podcast, Melody and Dustin of HeyDreamer share road stories, hard lessons learned, and describe the music business as "The Wild West."

The Peach Jam Podcast features stories and songs recorded live in our GPB studios from a variety of incredibly talented and diverse bands and artists who call the Peach State home.

This week on Peach Jam, we crank it up to 11 with HeyDreamer, an Atlanta rock band that's all about making killer music and outsmarting the music industry.

In this episode, you'll hear:

  • How Melody's early experience gigging as a teenager (!) shaped the band's strategic approach to shows today. (Hint: it involves a music business degree from Berklee!)
  • Dustin's wild story of a first tour gone wrong, complete with a van breakdown and some questionable characters.
  • Hilarious and horrifying tales from the road, including a near-death experience on a forklift (seriously).
  • Tips for musicians from their podcast, Sex, Drugs, and Disappointment (don't worry, it's mostly helpful advice).

Whether you're a musician yourself or just love rock n' roll, this episode is a rollercoaster ride of laughs, insights, and maybe a little hairspray.
