This week you will be tuning into a conversation with Nilo Blues an artist from Toronto who started in dance refined the craft, moved into acting, and is currently exploring what he can bring to life with music. I got a lot of respect for the guy he moves through mediums and creates in the spaces he feels called to. That takes guts he had to start from scratch not once but twice. His story is interesting as fuck and he was real vulnerable with the trials he’s had to go in building his multifaceted career.
