Since then I've always been focused on better ways to attract new folks and entertain my current community. Numerous times I've heard the name Audius mentioned but I wasn't quite sure why this name kept popping up. After some investigation I found they take community building to an entirely different level. So I had to satisfy my curiosity ya'll and I'm glad I did. Clayton Blaha, Head of Partnerships over at Audius, and I discuss the platform. I had to find out why this platform has over 5 million daily active users. They also have some very invested notable figures utilizing as well. Take a listen to this episode and what you'll find will shift your mind.

We then dive (no pun intended) into what we believe are better methods to get people to give your music a chance.

The music industry is difficult to navigate for both businesses and artists, and for artists, labels are defining success by their number of streams and top hits. The problem is, not all music is created for the standard hit-producing formula played on the radio. Artists are making authentic music filled with creativity, storytelling, and emotion that fuels their passion for music. Labels won’t see this music as successful: the artist needs to define their own success, but how?
Join President of CD Baby, Joel Andrew and I as we speak about artist and label success norms and new ways we can set better guideposts for artists to achieve their goals
