Throwing Spaghetti Podcast

This week on Throwing Spaghetti, I'm joined by pop artist, songwriter, and new mom Veronika Jokel.Veronika's music has been featured on Live with Kelly and Ryan, the Lifetime Network, and Good Morning America after her single "She" gained viral traction online. Beyond being an incredible artist and songwriter, she's also one of the most creative marketers I know, with an uncanny ability to spot trends, create engaging content, and come up with TikTok ideas that actually connect.We talk about the marketing experiments that changed her trajectory, the tactics that wasted money, the surprising platforms that delivered results, and how she approaches fan growth in today's constantly changing landscape.We also get into the less glamorous side of building a music career: bad gigs, industry scams, unhinged requests, moments that nearly made her quit, and what has kept her going through it all.And because this is Throwing Spaghetti, we finish by talking about what she's currently throwing at the wall, what she's afraid to try next, and, of course, the last time she ate pasta.If you're an artist trying to figure out what actually moves the needle, this one's for you.

What’s actually working for artists right now?In the first episode of Throwing Spaghetti, Jacque Ryal sits down with Kalen, Petra Jarrar, and Emily Sara for an honest, unfiltered conversation about what it really takes to move the needle in music today.From releasing music independently to navigating social platforms, building an audience, and figuring out what’s worth your time, nothing is off limits. No polished answers, no pretending anyone has it figured out.Just four artists comparing notes, sharing what’s working, what’s not, and what they’re trying next.If you’ve ever felt like you’re just throwing spaghetti and hoping something sticks: you’re not alone.
