WHO IS LOU MAVS?

Lou’s a musician, podcaster, and content creator. Engulfed in his metal and hardcore music scenes, he started the Music Is Life Podcast to discuss his trials and tribulations from his earliest days to now. Since 2002, Lou has performed in Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, and Nashville. Whether playing original music or jamming with friends, music rules his life.

The Music Is Life Podcast originally was a metal podcast giving advice and allegories to young musicians, but like all good things, his metal podcast expanded to something bigger. Now, his guests have a platform where they can discuss their stories, their art, their careers, and their opinons. Through his interviews with musicians and artists, he provides quality visual and audible entertainment.

WHAT IS THE MUSIC IS LIFE PODCAST?

The podcast started as an audio-only show in the Winter/Spring of 2019 dedicated to metal and hardcore, but Lou decided to expand the podcast’s scope. The YouTube channel launched in early 2021. Past guests include Helloween‘s Sascha Gerstner, author Lorelei Shellist, and Pavement Music artist Images of Eden.

Many MOB Records artists have garnered exposure as well from interviews with Lou. We film remote episodes at metal concerts. International figures in Professional Wrestling/Sports Entertainment such as MASADA have also made appearances.

Lou’s co-hosts include Wayne Noon of Rat Salad Review, his college friends Matt Mikolow and Bob Mango, Denise Escobar of the AVG Podcast, and James “JL” Lillquist and Eric Adamz of Beyond Bushido.

The mainstream has its place in the world, but the point of the Music Is Life Podcast is to promote the idea that art should unite and bring joy to people, regardless of its position. There is love for metal, hardcore, and all good art on this platform, regardless of genre. As long as Lou finds something of value in the guests that he has on the show, they can be found here.

In the world of Music Is Life Podcast, one thing is true – ALL ART IS VALID!
