Are GOOD guitarists POOR musicians? The crisis of classical guitar w/ Brandon Acker

Today I have a chat with Brandon Acker, a classical guitarist and expert in early plucked instruments.

He’s probably the most trusted classical guitar content creator on YouTube with over 500K subs. Brandon and his wife created Arpeggiato, an online music school for plucked instrument enthusiasts. Additionally, Brandon's classical guitar online course, has attracted over 1100 students globally, showcasing his dedication to musical education and performance.

In this episode we're talking about:
- the challenges of social media and YouTube as a musician
