E151:

From major label record deals to six figure album releases Tom comes to us after giving it all up to be an independent artist and business owner from the ground back up. As a Youtuber, producer, artist, music marketer, and many other things we have a lot to talk about today. Tom is extremely bullish on the future of the creative industry and our chat talks on optimism and trends in NFT, AI, VC investing in arts, and careers in creative of the future. Today goes extremely deep into NFT’s for musicians so please take time to listen back to my episode explaining what an NFT is if you aren’t familiar. Accessibility is here, technology is fuzing and disrupting our industries which is a great thing, and coming through with authenticity and experiments to back our ideas is where it’s at.
