How Artists Make Money in Sync Licensing with Robin Kindrick

Robin Kindrick is the owner of Track Dat Sync, a full-service music licensing company, and she joins us live from NOLA MusiCon inside the Jazz & Heritage Center to talk about sync, strategy, and what it really takes to build a sustainable music career. We get into her journey from songwriting to licensing, how placements in TV, film, ads, and video games actually work, and why sync can be a powerful lane for artists looking beyond streaming.We also dig into the bigger picture of the New Orleans music scene—confidence, culture, and where education still needs to catch up with talent. Robin shares insights on radio vs. streaming, why humility matters just as much as confidence, her favorite local artists and venues, and what makes New Orleans special for creatives trying to grow without leaving the city. This conversation is equal parts industry game and inspiration, straight from someone who’s been in it and is still pushing it forward. Our show's host, David Adams, founded Elation Entertainment, a New Orleans-based multi-media entertainment company. With a solid foundation of 8 years working in the Los Angeles music scene conducting multiple music camps with Grammy Associates, Musicians, and Producers, David brings a wealth of expertise to the table. His experiences have taught him valuable lessons, encouraging him to bring the entertainment industry standards and creative spaces to New Orleans, a place he calls home. Follow Elation EntertainmentInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/elationent/Website: https://www.elationent.com
