How do you stay inspired across a 20+ year music career? 🪕✨

Legendary banjo master Béla Fleck shares deep insights live from his Blue Ridge Banjo Camp at Brevard Music Center.

From contrasting his love for new projects with his wife Abigail Washburn’s perspective on Doc Watson and Thelonious Monk, to sharing Chick Corea’s advice on "Inputting vs. Outputting"—there's a vital lesson here for every musician and artist!

🧠 The Chick Corea Rule:
• Outputting: When inspired and creating, tune out the noise and focus on getting the music in your head down.
• Inputting: When dry or uninspired, go listen to new music to refill your creative reservoir!
