Interview with Daniel Powter

Your “Bad Day” is over as Celeb Savant speaks to Canadian singer and songwriter, Daniel Powter. Daniel explains how he was challenged with dyslexia and learning disabilities as a child, but learning how to play the violin at the age of 4 gave him confidence. After dropping out of college after 2 years, Daniel was consistently booed off the stage while he was performing at a small venue in Vancouver. This experience pushed him to perfect his craft... and the rest is music history!
