João's favorite EP of 2020 was "Dark Waters" - Allt's debut EP.
Guitarists Olle Nordström and Viktor Florman join João in discussing lots of important things about their successful start and how you can go about having a great launch and presenting the best version of yourself.
Important topics include: spending time getting things right on the first try, really investing in yourself (time AND money) so that you stand out on first listen, and being ready to sit for years on your music if that's what it takes for you to deevlop a good launch plan. Hopefully it takes less time after you listen to this episode.
