About This Podcast

Called to Music — The Podcast for Christian Indie Artists, Worship Leaders, Songwriters and Producers

Called to Music is for everyone God called to music.

Whether you're leading worship every Sunday, writing songs in your home studio, producing tracks, or releasing music independently, this show is for you.

Hosted by Bryan Boliver, each episode goes deep on the real journey of following a creative calling in faith. The highs, the hard seasons, the pressure to pick one lane, and the freedom that comes when you stop trying to fit in a box God never put you in.

Because you were never meant to fit in just one lane.

New episodes every other week.
