Strategy summary
What's working, what to fix, and what to ship next.
TL;DR
Reel #6's 621k likes prove stunt-driven track promos are the killshot for virality in this space, outpacing carousels 5x. Live gig recaps like #3 (36k likes) sustain heat but cadence at 2.2 posts/week starves momentum amid 374k followers. Pillars cluster tightly around tours (35%) and Come To Life (30%), ripe for replication. Double reels weekly on Fridays/Saturdays to hit benchmark. Leaks in frequency cap reach; hooks like location questions nail 400+ comments consistently. Pivot low-UGC (0%) to fan features for loyalty.
Working
5- Epic reel stunts explode like #6 at 621k likes.
- Gig recaps drive comments over 300/post.
- Engagement hooks spark replies on 70% posts.
- Carousel dumps humanize tour life effectively.
- B2B announcements build collab buzz.
Risks
5- Boost cadence beyond 2.2/week to feed algorithm.
- Diversify beyond Come To Life; tease next track.
- Add more UGC reposts to build community.
- Shorten some captions under 200 chars for reels.
- Post consistently in evening windows.
Ship next
5- Ramp to 4 posts/week starting with reel teasers.
- Test 2 UGC reposts/week crediting fans.
- Plan cross-promo with collab artists like Joris Voorn.
- Batch 5 gig recaps for post-tour dump.
- Run Q&A stories tied to post hooks.
