Ep. 156 Robin Young
<p>In this heartfelt episode of Outside The Circle, hosts Brian and Ronnie sit down with <strong>Robin Young</strong>, a rising artist whose roots in the <strong>Philadelphia area</strong> shaped a lifelong love for music.</p><p>Robin paints a vivid picture of her early years — a childhood filled with melody, surrounded by instruments and inspiration. Her father, a jazz musician and piano tuner, and her mother, a singer, filled the home with rhythm and harmony. That musical foundation, mixed with a natural curiosity for writing and performing, set her on a creative path from the very beginning.</p><p>Now living her dream as a singer-songwriter, Robin opens up about the process behind her <strong>debut album</strong> — the emotions, challenges, and triumphs that come with putting your first full body of work into the world. The conversation covers her songwriting influences, how she finds beauty in everyday moments, and the delicate balance between vulnerability and confidence as an emerging artist.</p><p>From childhood jam sessions in Philly to performing her own original songs on Nashville stages, Robin’s story is one of perseverance, passion, and authenticity — a reminder that music is often born from the places and people that shape us most.</p><p>🎧 Episode 156 of Outside The Circle — streaming now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms.</p><p>#OutsideTheCirclePodcast #RobinYoung #SingerSongwriter #PhillyToNashville #Americana #CountryMusic #NewMusic #PodcastInterview #DebutAlbum</p><p>Portions of this podcast episode contain copyrighted music used with the express permission of the artist and/or their authorized representatives.

Ep. 155 Jess Jocoy
<p>In this episode of Outside The Circle, Brian and Ronnie sit down with <strong>Jess Jocoy</strong>, a rising Americana artist whose poetic songwriting paints vivid pictures of love, loss, and life on the open road.</p><p>Jess talks about growing up in <strong>Puyallup, Washington</strong>, where her musical world was shaped by the mix of her parents’ influences — her father’s love of classic country icons like Alan Jackson and Conway Twitty, and her mother’s taste for powerful female voices like Shania Twain. That early contrast helped her develop a unique sound that fuses roots-driven storytelling with modern-day emotional depth.</p><p>The conversation dives into her move to Nashville, the creative challenges of balancing art and industry, and the stories behind her newest music. With sincerity and insight, Jess shares how the beauty of the Pacific Northwest still finds its way into her lyrics — bringing a sense of place and purpose to every song she writes.</p><p>From her humble beginnings to her current artistic rise, this episode is a celebration of authenticity, persistence, and the love of a good story told through song.</p><p>🎧 Episode 155 of Outside The Circle — streaming now everywhere you listen to podcasts.</p><p><strong>Music Use Disclaimer:</strong><br>Portions of this podcast episode contain copyrighted music used with the express permission of the artist and/or their authorized representatives.
