In addition to teaching music lessons, he performed with his indie rock band, youbet. Despite that, Llobet felt he wasn&#8217;t making inroads in the music scene.<\/p>\n<p>\nEventually, he met bassist Micah Prussack. The two hit it off immediately. They shared similar goals and realized their attitudes \u2014 centered on self-improvement and discipline \u2014 were well-matched. Llobet generated ideas, while Prussack gave them structure. It was a strong partnership.<\/p>\n<p>\nOn today&#8217;s show, Llobet and Prussack talk about working together on youbet&#8217;s new self-titled album. Both are also music instructors, and they discover one thing they don&#8217;t have in common: the type of students they prefer to teach. Plus, live performances from the new album.<\/p>\n<p>This episode of\u00a0World Cafe\u00a0was produced and edited by Miguel Perez.
