What happens when a rock star trades the stage for a startup? In this episode I catch up with Ryan Star, who went from topping the charts with hits like "Breathe" to founding a game-changing tech platform for musicians and fans. We reminisce about the chaos of life on tour—like that time we nearly got chased down by wild dogs during a run in the Bahamas—and dive into the ups and downs of Ryan’s career. From his early days in a high school band to his rise as a solo artist, Ryan shares the moments that shaped him, including his perspective on fame, creativity, and the grind of making music. Now the CEO of Stationhead, Ryan talks about his mission to help artists and their fans connect in a more meaningful way in the digital age. Whether you're a music lover or just curious about what it takes to pivot from rock star to entrepreneur, this is one conversation you won’t want to miss.
