Greg Amici: Sixteen Years Away From Music and the Comeback After

<p>Greg Amici is a singer-songwriter with one of music&#39;s stranger comeback arcs — fronting NYC&#39;s Big Honey until a vocal polyp ended it, then sixteen years of screenwriting and acting before his debut solo album Tragicomic arrived on Magic Door in 2025. He joins Lance Marwood on MAKE // BREAK to talk about the 1983 rejection letter that told him he&#39;d make it, the surgery that turned out to be nothing after months of silence, why he hires people for what he can&#39;t do, and the freedom of making music with no expectations left. Dare to fail, control what you can, and if you can&#39;t not do it — keep going.</p><p>In this episode:</p><ul><li>The 1983 rejection letter and the label-deal era</li><li>The CMJ vocal polyp that ended Big Honey</li><li>Sixteen years of screenwriting, acting and bouncing in LA</li><li>Coming back with Tragicomic and no expectations</li><li>Independence, control and daring to fail</li></ul><p>Guest links:</p><p>→ <a href="https://www.gregamici.com">https://www.gregamici.com</a></p><p>→ <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gregamicimusic">https://www.instagram.com/gregamicimusic</a></p><p>—</p><p>→ Listen on all platforms: <a href="https://pod.link/1831627966">https://pod.link/1831627966</a></p><p>→ Watch on YouTube: <a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUBRjKMVTI9g9dYHn-G1Eib-LfKLZso6_">https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUBRjKMVTI9g9dYHn-G1Eib-LfKLZso6_</a></p><p>→ Follow: <a href="https://instagram.com/lowkeyhellish">https://instagram.com/lowkeyhellish</a></p><p>→ V13 Media: <a href="https://v13.net">https://v13.net</a></p><p>→ V13 Store: <a href="https://v13.store">https://v13.store</a></p><p>→ The Cherale (horror novella): <a href="https://a.co/d/1SZhhwS">https://a.co/d/1SZhhwS</a></p><p>→ V13 newsletters: <a href="https://v13.net/newsletter/">https://v13.net/newsletter/</a></p><p>Subscribe, and if you like this one, pass it to the artist in your life who&#39;s been sitting on finished work.
