The Business Side of Music has a lot of great resources. The host Bob has a passion for helping those of us working as indies in the music business. He uses his podcast to share Music Business tips for the career musician.
I have found a wealth of information spanning: recording, touring, artist interviews, booking and so much more. The “Business Side 0f Music” is almost like the Swiss Army Knife for an independent artist. Check it out at (https://businesssideofmusic.com).
For example, say you want to learn about songwriting, this website has several articles and podcasts on the different aspects of the songwriting process. Personally, song copyright is a priority for me. There is a saying in the music business, “Protect your children (songs).” Skimming through the website, I stumbled across this podcast: https://businesssideofmusic.com/57-the-two-copyrights-required-for-your-songs/ as an example.
However, there isn’t just legal stuff here, there is a lot of excellent and helpful material. Who doesn’t want a free resource to a “world open mic guide.” I know I can benefit from one! This website has multiple resources for artists, engineers (which are artists in their own right), and people starting out who are trying to get a solid grasp on the music industry.
Now that you have a good resource what are you waiting for? Get out there and be what God has called you to be! “I’d rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed” (Robert H. Schuller). Here’s a secret we all fail! The difference is are you willing to get back up?
