Drawing on his experience with The Dillinger Escape Plan, Ben Weinman makes a case for artists to appeal to their most dedicated early fans who can help spread the word amongst peer groups. Check out The Business of Uncompromising Art, exclusively on Soundfly: soundfly.com/courses/the-busi...
- About this video:
Early adopters are your flag waivers. They love identifying something new and spreading the word about it. It is crucial to draw these influencers in, especially at the beginning of an artistic career.
Early adopters were a key part of The Dillinger Escape Plan's success. Early in their career, they played shows which single-handedly led to other shows which enhanced their fanbase at a critical time, and subsequently paved the way for the band signing a record deal with Relapse Records.
In Ben's newly launched video, courtesy of his online course, he touches on just how valuable it can be for young artists and bands to convert early listeners into fans in order to begin building a mythos and a tribe to last a lifetime. Check out this lesson and more on Soundfly.
