Episode 7: Reclaim Your Artistic Identity

Tash parker is Superhuman. Her power is in the details, the preparation, the relentless commitment to excellence and nurturing a project right until the very final touch has been made.

I’ve always admired this about Tash and, as her friend, I see how committed she is to the process of creating great work. I hear about parts of that process and get to experience some of her work in it’s early or “in progress” stages. 

Interestingly, when I hit play on a song, all of that falls away and just I’m face to face with an incredible, potent work of art brimming with raw creativity and soul.

I can’t HEAR the attention to detail… I just FEEL the music.

In episode seven of the Song Baker podcast, Tash and I talk about this process, how being stuck at home in 2020 expanded her creative practice, and how Tash reclaimed her artistic identity. 

She shares so openly about how she spent years prioritising somebody elses life, dreams and creativity over her own - and the difference in her life now that she’s made that reclamation. 

We talk about cleaning up your spiritual life (and how you still have interesting things to write about because SURPRISE not all great art is born from suffering) and so much more. 

Tash has been a part of the worldwide music industry and spent a fair amount of time at “the top”. She knows what it takes to get there and understands that great art is (usually) the path. She puts in the work and truly understands the value of honing your craft.

This chat is packed full of wisdom and, aside from being one of the most inspiring artists I know, Tash Parker is a truly cherished friend. To chat with her and let you all in on it felt like a gift to you, dear listener - because she is such a gift to me.
