When Why Don’t We‘s Daniel Seavey agreed to put on his first solo show Dec. 5 at The Troubadour in West Hollywood, Calif., he had no idea what he was getting himself into.  

“Even my hopes were pretty low given the last two years,” the 23-year-old musician shared with E! News in an exclusive interview, addressing the pandemic and the end of his boy band. “When tickets went on sale, we’ll either sell out or sell five tickets. I had no idea and it was going out on a limb. I was pretty scared.”
