421. Keep Holding On: Host Tom Loarie talks with American Electric Blues Saxophonist Terry Hanck

The Mentors Radio Show

In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with Terry Hanck, a multi-award-winning blues and soul saxophonist, singer and songwriter whose journey is as raw and real as the music he plays. Terry didn’t follow a straight line to success. He started as a surfer and diver, found his voice through a saxophone at age 21, toured the world with Elvin Bishop, and went on to lead his own band for more than three decades. Along the way, he’s won multiple BMA Awards, that is Blues Music Awards (BMA) and played with legends of the genre. But this is more than a story about music—it’s about finding your passion, staying one step ahead of a “real job,” and living life on your terms. You won’t want to miss this conversation.

“His fiery reed work, beautiful tone and effortless, inventive melodies make for a thoroughly enjoyable listening… his voice is a marvel. He can make it growl, ache, croon, moan and tease, and then some. It is a superb instrument in its instrument in its own right.” – Joseph Jordan, Golden Gate Blues News (SF)
