About the show

Hi everyone, I'm Zoë, and welcome to the Sweaty Palms Podcast. Sweaty Palms is a music industry podcast I started in my final semester of college. I was studying music business at the time and wanted to work in the industry after graduating, but wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do. So, this podcast became a resource for me that morphed into a passion project. You might be wondering why I named the podcast Sweaty Palms. Well, it's because when I get nervous, my hands sweat and I tend to get nervous in social settings, like talking to people. Sometimes it's endearing, or at least that's what I tell myself. Through this process, I’ve fallen in love with interviewing people. So, If you're interested in listening each week, you'll hear from people who work in this industry, whether it’s musicians, tour managers, talent buyers, songwriters, and more. I'm happy to have you here, and thanks for listening. If you want to keep up with me and hear more updates follow me on Instagram @sweatypalmspodcast.
