Podcast Events Website
Project Overview
We designed and developed a comprehensive podcast and events platform that seamlessly integrates content distribution across Spotify, Apple Music, and social platforms, while managing live events through Eventbrite. The website serves as a central hub for podcast episodes, event bookings, and community engagement, exploring music history through location-based storytelling.

- Connect with Eventbrite for live event ticketing and management
- Provide detailed episode descriptions with guest information and historical context
- Build contact forms for event inquiries and audience engagement
- Create a responsive, mobile-first design for listeners on the go
