Missoula musicians Josh Farmer and Kyle Curtis stop by Trail 103.3 ahead of their performance at the Western Montana Fair for a conversation about songwriting, collaboration, and what keeps them inspired. Josh reflects on nearly two decades in Missoula's music scene, from his early bands to building a career as one of the area's most recognizable singer-songwriters, while Kyle shares how he found his own balance as a working musician and piano technician.
The duo also performs two original songs live in the studio, including Josh's unreleased track "Oxygen" from his upcoming album and Kyle's witty, heartfelt original, "It's Your Fault You Fell in Love With Me," written for his wife on their wedding day. Along the way, they discuss the value of making music in Montana, collaborating with fellow artists, and why creating a meaningful life can be just as rewarding as chasing fame.
If you love local music, great stories, and intimate live performances, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
