Music Contractor Deb Chase, Most Common Lyric Themes, And The Moog Store Closes On My Latest Podcast

Deb Chase - Episode 527

You’ve probably wondered how musicians get hired to play on film and television sessions, and who takes care of all the paperwork.

My guest on my latest podcast episode is Deb Chase, who’s a contractor for musicians playing on movies and television scores, and even acting in them as well, and she’ll tell us how it all works.

Deb came into the business almost accidentally but she found she really had a knack for it as she learned under an old-school mentor before going out on her own.

During her time in Hollywood she has contracted musicians for everything from American Idol to the Soul Train Awards to the Grammy telecasts, to orchestral players for live performances with Aretha Franklin and James Brown, among many others.

In our interview Deb talked about how she became a contractor, the importance of contractors to professional musicians, how shows sometimes hire based on the look of the musicians, the paperwork required by the Musician’s Union, and so much more.

Also on my latest podcast episode:

  • The top 3 lyric themes found in the hits on Billboard’s top charts
  • And the factors at play that caused the Moog factory store to close for good.
