Chris Shaffer is an artist, vocalist, and the front man of The Why Story - an indie rock band formed in the late 1980s in Muncie, Indiana. In this episode of the Nate Biltz Podcast, Chris shares his experiences navigating through the music industry and touring over the years. He talks about the intricacies of producing and consuming music before the age of internet and shares some advice on how to balance the pursuit of one's passion while earning a living.
