We had the good fortune of connecting with Josh Gluck and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Josh, how do you think about risk?
Risk is essential when it comes to building and continuing to grow a career/business. Especially in the music industry. There are times where you must be massively risk oriented. Overall, however, these must be calculated risks. There’s a great deal of thinking ahead and planning that must come first in the risk taking process. It’s worth it because these can be incredibly pivotal moments.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Creating music is my way of making sense of the world. It’s how I process, compartmentalize, and entirely express myself. I’m incredibly motivated by attempting to tackle questions that seem to have no answers. Music is my way of doing that. Listening to the music i write is a pathway into my life and where I’m at during that point in time. Still working on the whole “‘meaning of life” question so keep listening and maybe it’ll pop up in a future song.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Love spending time in Coconut Grove. Beautiful area. Definitely hitting the Fish House for dinner and some music. Big shout out to the Fish House. Night out on the town though got to be Wynwood. 1800 Lucky if there’s a good DJ, Gramps if there’s a good live band, finish the night off at dirty rabbit.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
So much of who I am today is due to my parents tremendous support. In a society that recognizes much of success through monetary gain, hearing your child say “I want to be a musician” can carry some complexities. That being said, not for one moment did they ever express hesitation in me going after what I dreamed of. Their constant support and belief in me was everything I needed to keep going, and continues to push me to keep going to this day.
