The Lucky Trikes is a Chicago based chamber band that performs story-times with live improvised and classical music and original songs for young children.
The Lucky Bikes is a modern chamber ensemble featuring songs and compositions dirty enough for the bars yet classy enough for the concert halls.
Today’s guest is involved in both of these bands as well as lots of other unique and interesting musical things. His name is Kyle Gregory Price and I really enjoyed getting to know him, exploring his work and his mind a bit.

Jason bender is a martial arts guy and fitness trainer at my gym. I would see him all the time - working out with clients in the martial art studio and on social media. I always liked what saw; his energy and his spirit. Even though we had never met, I asked him to be a guest on Eager to Know.
I am glad we hung out and talked. I think Jason is awesome I am happy to share my conversation with him.

I was super excited to meet with this episode’s guest as he has intimate involvement with a subject I don’t know much about, music. Paul Hamilton is a musician, composer, and teacher. I thought we were going to discuss the creative process of putting musical notes on paper and all about this foreign language of musical composition. As these things happen, our conversation did not go as planned and instead I got to know a lot about Paul and his relationship with sound. Sound is an interface for many connections in his world; I am excited to share my conversation artist Paul Hamilton as we discuss the spirit of sound.
