Summary: #BBTD Podcast Episode #9: Matt Halpern from Periphery and Bandhappy [ Habit Change | Persistence | Grit | Creativity | Learning | Self Education | Books ] Due to my punctured lung :( In episode 9 of Braver By The Day I bring in a conversation I had with Professional Drummer and Bandhappy(dot)com Founder Matt Halpern. It's definitely one of the best conversations I've ever had online, and I think you guys will get a lot out of this chat! Matt's Band: Periphery Matt's Business: Bandhappy "If you want to be in a creative profession such as music, long-term - you need to embrace both artistry and business..." ~ Inspired by Matt Halpern What we talk about: How Matt became a professional drummer, win huge drumming awards, and build out a platform based StartUp - all at the same time Matt tells us about how he balances his time, energy and passion between his bang (Periphery) and his business (Bandhappy) What is coming for Bandhappy(dot)com How Matt and his team are marketing BandHappy and how they're planning to expand their brand going forward What Matt thinks about the future of monetization for creative industries, and his thoughts on "Art vs Business." I've been a fan of Matt's band for around 4 years now and he turned out to be a pretty amazing guy in person! #BBTD on your favourite Social Network @joshuacliston on Twitter
