Taking the leap to pursue an artistic career instead of taking the more traditional path can be intimidating at times. Yet, it is a decision that young musical sensation Calvin Spiethfel is glad to have taken. Calvin is well on his way to building a stunning career in music with his strong beats and killer rhymes. We caught up with this up-and-coming musical superstar to provide an exclusive interview for fans where he talked about his career and what music means to him.
Q. Hello Calvin Spiethfel, thanks for taking the time to talk to us. Our first question is, Why did you first start making music?
A. Why of course!
I grew up in Chicago, Illinois. In elementary school, I always found myself enjoying music class the most. I started to play the recorder, piano, and a variety of other instruments. I found music to be my escape from reality. When I am focused on music I’m not focusing on anything else and it’s a great way to destress after a long day. I always knew I wanted to be a professional musician someday, but I didn’t know how to get there.
Q. What has been your journey like to make music your career?
A. I developed a rigid release schedule for my tracks. I want to get my voice and my musical style out there, and the best way to do that is to release lots of music. I post all my stuff on streaming services like Apple Music, Spotify, and Soundcloud, and I’ve made a significant impact on these platforms. My newest song, Delighted Dad, has already amassed thousands of streams on Soundcloud and Spotify.
Q. What are you focusing your time on now?
A. Right now I am focused on my debut studio album. I’ve been releasing lots of singles, but I want to work on something more serious. I’m putting a lot of time and effort into my album because I want it to be great for my fans. I’m definitely going to be having some tracks with vocals and some without to showcase my production abilities too.
Everyone listens to music in their day-to-day life. And Calvin Spiethfel is excited to continue his passion and show that to every listener of his tracks. Here’s to wishing this musical sensation all the best for the future.
