In this episode, I sit down with Pacific—also known as Will Hunter—an indie artist whose song is closing in on 2 million streams. But numbers only tell part of the story.We talk about the real ride of being an independent musician: the momentum, the burnout, the thrill of playing live, and what touring feels like in a post-COVID world. Will doesn’t hold back when it comes to the emotional weight of doing this on your own terms—especially when the algorithms don’t always play fair.We also dig into his latest album, how his sound’s evolved, and what keeps him grounded through it all.This one’s for anyone who’s chasing something, building from scratch, or just trying to make sense of the dream.–– HaydenIntroduction music Blood Sugar Blues by former First Spin guest, Drew White.If you enjoyed this episode, it’d mean a lot if you left a quick review—it's one of the best ways to help new listeners find the show.And if you want to hear more artists worth your time, follow First Spin on social:📱 TikTok📸 InstagramOfficial Spin Podcast Spotify PlaylistOfficial Spin Podcast Apple PlaylistThanks for listening—see you next week.
