‘Don’t Say No’: 20 Years as a DJ (ft. Dominic Longo)

Posted on by Leave a comment

Our latest guest on The Quinn Spinn is… my brother.

My brother Dominic has been a professional DJ for the past two decades. Like anybody building an entertainment-based business from zero, he’s learned countless lessons along the way — lessons which he now looks to teach the next generation of aspiring event DJs.

Also, this episode offers a throwback all the way to the pre-historic days of The Quinn Spinn. In case you didn’t know, we got our start as a college radio show called Dominic & The Quinn at Moravian College in Bethlehem, PA in 2007-08.

Posted on by Leave a comment

Daisy Sellas and Brittany Bishop are the co-founders of Anthems Against Abuse, a Nashville-based non-profit dedicated to providing support and resources to victims of domestic violence and other forms of abuse. Their flagship event — a music showcase featuring all female-fronted artists — is in its second year, taking place at The Coliseum in Nashville on Saturday, June 14.

Daisy and Brittany share the story behind the organization, and we take a deep dive into why it’s important to identify and stop signs of abuse in their tracks.

The Realest Interview I’ve Ever Done!

Posted on by Leave a comment

I had the chance to return to The Poptimist podcast this week, hosted by my friend Taylor Berryman. One thing I admire about Taylor is his fearlessness to approach topics within the music industry that everyone’s *thinking* about — but hesitates to *talk* about.

We showed no hesitation on this episode! In this conversation, we cover a variety of topics informed by the Nashville music industry and our individual creative journeys, including:

  • The importance of building your creative ecosystem from your own true values.
  • The Art of Frame Control: How to keep your cool in times of conflict and high-pressure moments.
  • Too many Homelanders, not enough heroes: The difference between living in service, versus using service as a mask for self-interest.
  • And, of course… a discussion about the 2025 Major League Baseball season!

You want something completely unfiltered? Here it is!

The Most Powerful Duo in Indie Rock (ft. Lips Speak Louder)

Posted on by Leave a comment

Lips Speak Louder rocks so hard that they only need two members — guitarist/vocalist Rachel Brandsness and drummer Angie Lese — to melt faces. The Nashville-based duo has gained traction being their raw, unapologetic selves — and they make the music to match!

Learn about how Lips Speak Louder has burst onto the scene — and discover what we can expect from their forthcoming album, Consolation Prize — on this week’s edition of The Quinn Spinn!
