Josh Willcutts, aka “Yakyn”, is living one of his dreams, one of them he reaffirmed 7 years ago when he wrote song lyrics in the back of a warehouse’s invoices. He has been working in one of the most music-driven cities in the world, sharing his songs in bars, at colleges, in homes, on TV, and at festivals! All this passion for writing music began when he wanted to write fantasy novels when he was a child. His next dream is to buy his mother’s own house; for that reason, he creates music that makes you think, inspires, and wants you to listen to them over and over again. Let’s tune in and learn more about his inspiring story.[00:01 –9:17 ] Getting to Know JoshI welcome and introduce my guest, Josh Willcutts (Yakyn).

I would say that’s one of the things I would say about fasting from alcohol as I’m in my sleep got better in my anxiety down when I will sleep” – Josh Willcutts “I would say that a lot of wood in the song lyrics are talking about you leaving church and kind of looking back on your life feeling lost and questioning your decisions” – Josh Willcutts “In the song, I’ve never wanted to push the idea to not to believe in Jesus or something like that. I’m pushing more of disenchantment with the church” – Josh Willcutts“My favorite thing about music is when you write your story and you end up riding someone else’s story” - Josh Willcutts “The Bible is meant to control masses of people. It’s men and used to control masses of people intentionally and not away from thinking too much outside the box” - Ephraim Glick-----------------------------Follow Josh on [email protected], Spotify, Apple Music, Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, and https://www.yakynmusic.com/.To know more, you can connect with me on LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter or visit my website https://ephraimglick.com/.
