Here’s something I love about my business. In the course of checking out a house for a client, our paths intersected with Mike Koster, a Director of Southwest Roots Music (SWRM) and the founder and sustaining force behind the Thirsty Ear Festival. Most of us know them as the folks who’ve brought New Mexico the [...]

Focused and prolific, Phillip has been a one-man band of production and promotion, furiously churning out work all the while gathering its audience.
