Podcast 412: Guitarist and Therapist Matt Baldwin

Musician, therapist and zine publisher Matt Baldwin joins us this week for an insightful chat about the creative process and so much more. Matt talks to us about his career as a guitarist and the influence that Robbie Basho and John Fahey had on his playing. We also talk about his ‘How to Play Guitar’ zine series, where he shares some of his favorite tips, quotes, and life hacks. Last but not least, we discuss the Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy that he’s conducting out of his Southern California office and learn about the crucial role that music plays in these sessions with his clients.
