Not every musician gets to be a rock star. Most musicians support their musical passions by working day jobs. In fact, you may not even know these people are musicians when they're washing your windows, arguing your case in court, or teaching you to jump off a trapeze platform without fear. In Day Job, we connect the music you love - with the people in your neighborhood. Based in Seattle, with long a term plan to expand to other cities.
