Chase Akers - S2E40

Founder of Akers Media Solutions, the production team behind both my podcasts OTV and Elevated, Chase Akers, comes On the Virg to talk entrepreneurship in the creative industries. With a long history of a dynamic career, Chase has become one of the most in-demand musicians and DJs in Nashville. Son of legendary musician and producer Tim Akers, Chase has broad exposure to many fields in the creative and music industries.
We discuss the importance of diversification in skill sets - how the "old" methodology of the music industry is gone, and where the innovation will come from. He recounts his childhood and early years as a musician, stating that, "nothing is ever handed to you." Chase tells the story of how Covid-19 helped him to discover his own innovation and birth his podcast production company, Akers Media Solutions.
He's a musical encyclopedia, so we dive into his undying love of hip hop, R&B, and soul music - leading to a fantastic conversation around his affinity for "diamonds in the rough" red wines and bourbons.
