My Epic & The Importance of Developing Deep Connections with Your Band's Social Media Strategy

The social media world right now is a cesspool of content meant to go viral, be a flash in the pan, and hope that viewers will actually go beyond the doom scroll to check out what you are doing.

But what is the right way to do this? Is there any hope behind trying to hop on a trend and just hope something becomes viral? Well, there just might be.

Aaron from the rock band My Epic joins the Chord Progression Podcast. With a new album, Loriella, out now, we take this album in a few interesting directions talking about:

• The importance in framing when it comes to social media content and the commitment it takes to make a splash anywhere online.
• Why it is important to focus your content around building deep connections with your existing fans and to attract new audiences, not just hopping on a trend in hoping to go viral.
• The new start the band is going to be taking on "Loriella" and why they are happy with it.

A fantastic episode beyond anything we were expecting. We have plenty of interviews like this, so hit that subscribe button to not miss out on any future episodes.
