Chicagoverse 130 - Rich Jones

Following his debut interview in summer 2016, Chicago songwriter Rich Jones makes his return to Dynasty Podcasts, in a chat recorded at Virgin Hotels.

The artist delves into his recent release Vegas, and how the city of Las Vegas served as the backdrop for the project’s creation. Jones recalls the process of crafting the record with accomplished musician (and Dynasty guest alum) Ryan Lofty, following the pair’s long-running talks about working together one day.

Jones also speaks on the motivation for pursuing a more pop-driven sound on the record, with him and Jaime Black expressing their mutual appreciation for unabashed pop music.
