I was so inspired by today’s guest, Baltimore beatboxer Max Bent, who we’ll be talking with this morning for this month’s installment of smARTbeats. I love how Max can use his body to be a one-man music machine, so, besides Max’s music, we’ll hear other artists using their voices and bodies in unique musical ways. Maybe you’ll be inspired to use your own body as the musical instrument it can be. We’ll also be Talking Tunes with Brian and Tom of Milkshake, today’s tune is “Feel It Still” by Portugal.The Man
