MMP001: How MadCraft Promotes Music Online And Why They’re So Good At It

One of the coolest things about this band is they produce everything themselves – music, design, merch, music videos…  They learned everything via the internet, without formal training. I thought that was impressive and asked Tom to come on the show explain how they do it all!
