Why an Indie Artist Needs Two Additional Companies, Not a Dream and a Prayer

Why an Indie Artist Needs Two Additional Companies, Not a Dream and a PrayerLet’s start by being honest, because this is where most music advice goes soft. If you are an independent artist releasing music without a record company or a publishing company, you are not actually “free.” You are exposed. You may feel creative freedom because no one is telling you what to write or record, but from a business point of view, your music is drifting with no structure holding it in place. There is no clear owner on paper. There is no system collecting everything you are owed. There is no container protecting your work long-term. That is how artists quietly lose money, slowly give up control, and eventually lose confidence in their own future. http://www.makingascene.org
