Guest Speaker Ep. 97: Deric Wagner

On Episode 97 of the Guest Speaker Series, Mike sits down with co-founder and CEO of Junto Music Club, Deric Wagner. Deric is the epitome of someone who is a true team player and makes things happen behind the scenes. Through Junto Music Club, a collective out of Massachusetts, he manages artists such as Timi O, l.ucas, Jiida, and Rilla Force. They have their biggest show yet, "Proof of Concept" coming to the Crystal Ballroom in Somerville on May 11th. Mike and Deric discuss a variety of topics, including how Deric became so deeply involved in JMC, and how he's been able to not only find his role as a manager, but also grow into other roles such as executive production and creative direction. Deric also unveils the curtain behind some of JMC's biggest projects to date, such as l.ucas's most recent album and short film 'How Am I Supposed to Feel?', as well as Timi O's groundbreaking music videos for singles "Noir Fatale" and "Sundayservice". The guys also discuss Deric's football playing career, his deep love for Toy Story, chasing thrills snowboarding on the slopes, the in-depth dynamics behind a JMC music retreat, and so much more.
