TALKING WITH ARTISTS: Allen Moore
BRIDGE TV INTERVIEW

Talking With Artists is a new original series produced for Bridge TV, hosting discussions with artists in all disciplines. Most episodes of the current season of the series are currently available for viewing now in the Bridge Video collection (subscription required). New episodes are added throughout each season.

It’s a fitting that this interview appears as the second to last magazine article this year, as it continues a discussion began in V23N1 of the Bridge Journal published at the start of 2023. We hope you’ll enjoy this studio visit and conversation with artist, DJ, and Bridge board member Allen Moore.
