Inside the Playbook: Austin Dunn on Why Most Artists Will Never Go Viral
Description
The way artists connect with fans is evolving, and Austin Dunn has been studying the shift in real time.
In this episode of The Manager’s Playbook, Austin breaks down the new rules of content in the music business: why vertical video wins, how authentic storytelling builds audience trust, and what it really means to stay “cool” online.
Using examples from artists like Jessie Reyez and Sasha Keable, he shares the creative and strategic playbook behind content that actually connects, not just performs.
For any artist or manager trying to stay relevant in 2025 and beyond, this conversation is a masterclass in how to make your message move.
Simply put, a conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
