Our guest's today Sean Ibanez and Kena Sosa tell us the story of how it all began. We of course get into many additional topics in our recording. Subjects ranging from cinema history to favorite Dallas Fort Worth restaurants. We also discover that our new friends are not simply incredible performers. Sean designs and builds his own drums and is an art teacher. Kena has written and published multiple books, made three short Indi films, and enriches the lives of children as a local librarian on a daily basis. It was a sincere honor to meet these two and we can't wait to have them on for another recording. \nThis Sunday I was able to catch them at the park during their weekly practice session. I capture a short video that you can see on the YouTube version of this episode. Sean and Kena were also nice enough to include two tracks for us to play. Catch those two songs at the end of this episode.\n***SEE THEM PLAY LIVE***\nCath them July 29th, 7:15 at Anime Dallas.
