Love Ghost uses YouTube algorithm to jumpstart his independent artist career

Finnegan Bell, known to the world as Love Ghost, always knew he wanted to defy genres. He describes his own music as a combination of rock, grunge, metal and emo—influenced by everyone from Kurt Cobain to Rihanna (who he hopes to share the stage with someday, as you’ll find out in this episode). But what really sets Love Ghost apart from his contemporaries is the marketing strategy he employs for his music, including a viral music video made popular by his growing fanbase in Latin America.

In today’s episode, Marilyn chats with Finn about his current content strategy, emphasis on mental health, and the incredible (true) story of his first million views on YouTube.
