Last year, we talked to Toronto sludge metal musician The Bunn. He had just launched an ambitious project to build a music career in a niche genre starting at age 50. A year later, we check in to see how the project is going, his wins and setbacks, and what the future holds. We discuss how art and business don’t have to be incompatible, serving your niche, and defining The Bunn brand. And as a piece of bonus content, we end with one of his songs – “Decorated” from WTLNDS. Support The Bunn and his musical projects at thebunn.ca. 🔶 [More]
Even though the first year of building this “sludge metal empire” was extremely rocky, a lot of decent stuff happened. It’s only now, looking at the year in summary, that it was all worthwhile. What would be possible if we could maintain greater consistency? #tothemoon ————————— MUSIC Spotify FOREIGNS https://spoti.fi/34KTb0a VENNS https://spoti.fi/3uJ7n57 WTLNDS https://spoti.fi/3uE9JlB MUSIC Bandcamp THE BUNN https://bit.ly/bunn-bc (exclusive demos & singles) FOREIGNS https://bit.ly/BunnFRNS VENNS https://bit.ly/BunnVenns WTLNDS https://bit.ly/wtlnds OFFICIAL PAGES https://thebunn.ca/ https://venns.ca/ https://foreigns.ca/ https://wtlnds.ca/ ————————— MERCH https://bit.ly/bunn-merch ————————— HELIX PRESETS / DRUM MIDI / REAPER SESSIONS https://bit.ly/bunn-sonics ————————— YOUTUBE MEMBERSHIPS https://bit.ly/yt-pals PATREON MEMBERSHIPS https://bit.ly/patreon-pals ————————— Services Bunn Uses ————————— [More]
Is this even possible? Art is cool and all but how are we going to make enough money to survive, let alone grow and thrive? And who the heck listens to sludge?
