This is a new podcast about the interesting people that I have come across growing up and living in Brooklyn. We start from the perspective of the New York City "Block" as the center of the world. The Brooklyn Block is the place you come from. Before your old enough to imagine the concept of, or explore the geography of "the neighborhood" you grow on the block.

Victor V. Gurbo is a Brooklyn-native musician, artist and luthier. Active since 2012, Victor and his band have played at iconic NYC venues such as The Greene Space, Brooklyn Academy of Music, City Winery, The Highline Ballroom, and many more. His songwriting is inspired by traditional American folk music, as well as its revival in the 1940’s-60’s by artists such as Bob Dylan. He also dives deep into classical and archaic literature which he studied at the Macaulay Honors College, to resurrect their narratives in modern song. Victor’s songs are characterized by their lyrical composition and vivid rhyme schemes. Victor V. Gurbo & Co.’s eponymous first full studio album features seven original songs, two of which were performed at WNYC/WQXR’s Battle of the Boroughs’, where the band took home the Brooklyn championship.
