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!
