What makes people become lifelong fans of an artist? In this episode, Chris Alba breaks down why the strongest artist brands aren't built on logos, visuals, or collaborations. They're built by creating superfans. And superfans are built through strong storytelling. 

Using Skrillex this episodes case study, Chris explains his 7 step "Build a House" framework for developing an unforgettable artist brand. Drawing from 13 years as a creative director and brand strategist; as well as personal experience working directly with Skrillex, he shows how great brands create emotional connection through consistency, story, and identity.

You'll learn how to define your creative world, choose your archetype, build a memorable brand foundation, craft your rollout, and create experiences that turn casual listeners into passionate brand ambassadors.

You'll also learn to develop your own science and rules of "cool."
