How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
For Michael Seyer, performing at the Global Citizen Festival would be more than just a career milestone—it would be a chance to align his introspective, genre-blending sound with a global message. Known for crafting deeply personal music rooted in identity and emotion, Seyer sees the festival as an opportunity to reach wider audiences while standing for something bigger than himself. “It’s about connection and meaning,” he reflects, “not just exposure.”
What would you do with $50,000?
With $50,000, I’d invest in my creative freedom. I’d upgrade my home studio and put a good chunk into touring—doing it independently is tough, so that kind of support would go a long way. I’d also use it to give myself time and space to write and record more music without the pressure. Just keep building, keep creating.
