GG34: Anthony Aparo, Ale Sharpton, & Amplify Decatur

ANTHONY APARO talks benefits of having singing-songwriting dad & upcoming album release.

ALE SHARPTON explains why he doesn't rate beers, engaging the African-American community in craft beer, and more.

Spencer Smith explains how Amplify My Community flips the typical benefit concert model to look like June's AMPLIFY DECATUR with The Milk Carton Kids, Elephant Revival, Penny & Sparrow, and Eliot Bronson.
