I’m a lifelong music obsessive who lives and breathes the fan experience. You can’t truly understand how to market music if you’re not in the trenches yourself—standing in merch lines, sweating it out in online ticket queues, pre-ordering vinyl, pre-saving albums, and debating passionately with other fans. These are the butterflies-in-your-stomach moments that define music fandom, and they’re essential to grasp if you want to reach fans authentically.
My philosophy is simple: we live in an attention economy, and a fan’s most valuable asset is their time. The first step in building a relationship is earning just a few of those precious minutes. From there, the real work begins: nurturing trust, deepening connection, and always seeing the experience through the fan’s lens. That’s how lasting fan relationships—and sustainable careers—are built.
