Five Things You Need To Shine in the Music Industry

Authority Magazine interview featuring Hank Hehmsoth

I’m honored to share a new in-depth interview with Authority Magazine (written by Diane Strand, Jan 7, 2026). We talk about my origin story, creative process, lessons from the road, and what it takes to build a sustainable life in music.

“Take care of your health. Your body is an instrument.”

If you’re a musician (or any kind of creative), I hope this one feels encouraging — practical, honest, and forward-looking.

If you enjoy it, feel free to reply and tell me what resonated most.


Thanks for being here — and for supporting the music, the art, and the work behind it.
