Community Mindset: Why Artists Don't Need a Gimmick

In this episode, Lyndon and Breallyn swap the pressure of "making it big" for the peace of finding your ‘place’. Lyndon shares his recent experience at the Troubadour Weekend at the Burke and Wills Winery, which offered a fresh perspective on what it really means to be an artist. They discuss the exhausting advice creators often hear—like needing a "gimmick" or a "hit song"—and why that competitive, individualistic mindset can be so damaging.We’d love to hear your thoughts.
