How can songwriters and artists grow comfortable with not only sharing openly, but becoming comfortable monetizing their craft into a business? We're joined by Jillian Dawn to discuss the incredible year she's had, her new single "Fender Bender," and how she's learned to navigate intuition, building a business, and remaining genuine in relationships.

Creating a community and creating as a community are slightly different, but Danny Ross has pioneered both. As the founder of the Anti Social Camp (and the camp!), an engineer, producer, and newly a professor at Berklee NYC, Danny isn't only proving the power of collaboration in New York's indie music community, he's making it impossible to deny it. With Hulu and Apple credits to his name and now hundreds of creatives gathering at his events annually, Danny is with Groundbreaking today to discuss how he built a community that has collected billions of streams and multiple Grammys, and the mentalities as an artist, producer, and leader that are guiding him the right direction.

Pride in being an independent artist has definitely grown recently, but alongside that has also developed a doubt and frustration with standard record label practice. Do artists today still need record labels? Are record labels really trying to trick artists? How do we even begin to look at a record deal?
All of these questions are being discussed in this episode with Bucky Driedger, Label Manager at Birthday Cake Records and artist, engineer, booking agent, and more. Over an impressive career of writing, building, touring, and leading, Bucky sees the music industry from multiple perspectives - a strength and muscle he's leveraging as he steps into his latest role to help build the careers of other artists.

The best working relationships in music have one thing in common: trust. However, it's not as easy to build it as you may think. An artist needs to trust their team often with difficult, personal decisions - and the best relationships are built on a mutual trust that takes time to develop. Today, we're meeting with Nashville-based artist manager Claire Sojka to discuss how she builds trust in her working relationships, what others can do to build their own, and the evolving role of the artist manager.

Playlist curators are the new "influencers" of music - so far how does that influence go? For artists, discoverability means being playlisted, so this week we're going right to one of today's most influential curators: Sam Weisband. With Jake, Sam discusses how curators are using TikTok as a tool of their own and the realities of now working as a bridge between musician and listener.

Sometimes, creativity can be isolating. But often, creativity is best enjoyed with community... so where does the balance exist? In an industry so crowded, why is it hard to find community? Are we looking in the right place, or does it just not exist?
Today, we're sitting down with Lindsey Lerner, Host of Learning with Lerner and Founder of the Mobile Social Club, to discuss why people need community and how we're sometimes preventing it. Lindsey, also a tour manager, has traveled the country and shares the lessons learned from close relationships and how she builds community based not only on commonality.
