Warren Zeiders | Happy But Not Satisfied

Warren Zeiders | Happy But Not Satisfied

Author: Marc Preston Productions, LLC May 12, 2022 Duration: 48:24
On this episode of The Story & Craft Podcast, we sit down with country music artist, Warren Zeiders.  At only 22 years old, he’s quickly come onto the country music scene in an unconventional way.  Like most of us, he had some time at home to create during the pandemic.  Though he hadn’t performed professionally, he was encouraged to post cover songs on TikTok and Instagram.  His views on TikTok shot into the millions.  Warren then started to receive requests for original music.  Then, after only a couple of years of using social media to get his music out there, he now has a record deal, over 300 million combined streams and views, as well as a brand new album (717 Tapes).  I’m happy to sit down with Warren to talk story and to share the unconventional story of an artist that we’re going to be hearing about for some time.  SHOW HIGHLIGHTS0:05:27 - Country Music in Pennsylvania0:09:46 - Creating "Ride a Lightning"0:14:52 - Discovering Music Passion Without Familial Influence0:20:18 - Fans Shaped My Musical Journey0:24:23 - From Bedroom to Stage0:25:59 - Timeless Themes in Music Lyrics0:33:08 - Music Career and Family's Reaction0:42:00 - Seven QuestionsListen and subscribe on your favorite podcast app.  Also, check out the show and sign up for the newsletter at www.storyandcraftpod.com. ...#podcast #interview #WarrenZeiders #Singer #Songwriter #SingerSongwriter #Musician #CountryMusic #Country #CountrySinger #CountryLife #NewMusic #Concert #Nashville #MusicCity #Guitar #717Tapes #TikTok #Instagram #actor #acting #actorslife #storyandcraft #voiceover
