Video Interview: Teenage Daydreams



Last year we did a pretty extensive interview with the one-man band that is Teenage Daydreams. You can read it here.

Now with a new LP to promote, and a single soon to be featured on an upcoming compilation album by Lackpro Records, we once again reached out to Teenage Daydreams to see what's what. This time we thought we would try something new. Always a great sport, Aidan from Teenage Daydream said he was down to do it, and willing to be our guinea pig, test pilot, first video interview.

Our intention is to do a series of interviews with different artists in different stages of their career, asking each artist the same questions. The purpose of asking the same questions is to demonstrate different ways each artist approaches obstacles, and views their path. Some artists give dull same ol same ol answers, but usually we get some creative twists. For example when asked how he promoted his first recordings, Teenage Daydreams said he utilized Craigslist to do this. A clever approach to cheap promotion, he is the first to have stated he sought attention this way.

Hopefully these videos will offer some type of insight into what works, and what doesn't work. More than that, we hope you find them entertaining.
