Connor Price is proving you don’t need a label to win in music. The independent artist has built a movement on his own terms—viral hits around the globe and a fanbase that keeps growing. But while he’s in full control of his music career, there’s one thing he’s still figuring out: faith.
In this conversation, Connor opens up about navigating success without the machine, his viral Spin the Globe series, and how staying independent isn’t just a business move—it’s personal. But when it comes to faith, things aren’t so clear-cut. After years of keeping religion at a distance, he’s asking bigger questions, sitting with the uncertainty, and wondering what it really means to believe.
Connor is breaking down what independence truly costs, this episode is a rare look at an artist who’s owning everything—except the answers.
