BP#1: Daniel Allan (Musician) on Self-Reliance, Being an Independent Artist in Web3, and Raising 50ETH (~$200,000)
Welcome to The Bad Posture Podcast, hosted by Daniel Witcoff.
Every other week, we'll bring you an interview with the artists, entrepreneurs, engineers, and innovators building the metaverse.
--
In Episode #1, we interview Daniel Allan, the 24 year-old musician who made headlines by independently raising 50ETH for his Overstimulated project. At the time, that amounted to ~$200,000. Not too shabby.
From learning English as a second language, to teaching himself to make music, play D1 tennis, and reinvent himself as musician in the age of Web3, Daniel's entire story is interwoven with a beautiful self-reliance and willingness to bet on himself.
You can listen to Daniel’s latest single here, and take a look at his crowdfund campaign here.
