Real Jobs Are Not My Forte: “Don’t Get Trapped” (Episode 2)

Last month, we started a new exclusive DT monthly Vlog series documenting the life of 2 Penn graduates who are embarking on a music career, so that others can learn from their experiences.  

This month Ben Naecker (C’09, Water Polo) and Blake West (W’09, Jazz Combos) talk about:

  • their move to Austin
  • their new day-to-day life
  • their plans for how they’re gonna keep eating and living (and how much that costs…). 
  • What sorts of gigs don’t make financial sense for musicians like themselves.

Watch Episode 2: “Dont’ Get Trapped” above!

What People Are Saying

"Because of Penntertainment, I got scouted for Nickelodeon. I had such a great time talking with them. I may be a resource for a show on science, travel, geography, gender etc. Thanks for all you do. It really makes a difference."
