PROMOTING IN 2018, NAVIGATING THE WATERS

1)Aggressively market your gigs, your new songs, your brand name on Twitter to publishers, ad execs, people who can put your music in film, TV, advertising and more

2)Aggressively market your SPOTIFY, iTunes, CD Baby, Amazon and eBay



CD Baby Gary Santarella and Ditto: https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/garysantarella Unconditional Love CD by Gary Santarella

__________________________________________________________________________________________________

3)Have a strategy that you work daily and re-work whenever necessary. So many artists do not have business plans, a strategy, as much as I send out
strategy ideas and work with artists to adhere to a game-plan, too many get caught up in the artistry and not the business when it is two parts to our industry - Music and Business

4)Get your copyrights in order, get your Performance Rights Organization to work WITH YOU, not to ignore you, stay on BMI, ASCAP and SESAC
and ask them to help you, go to their forums in NY, and perform at their BMI / ASCAP nights. Some of these executives go on to work for publishers or record labels or in the film industry

Those are 4 quick points for today

SPOTIFY in WALL STREET JOURNAL

Spotify Reveals the Math Behind Its Music Royalties

Streaming Service Pays Less Than a Penny for Each Use

By 
Sven Grundberg
Dec. 3, 2013 7:27 p.m. ET
Ever wonder how much an artist gets every time you click their song on services like Spotify?
The Swedish streaming-music provider is looking to provide some answers amid continued debate over whether artists and music rights holders get a fair shake from their business model.
Spotify Ltd. on Tuesday disclosed, among other things, that each time a user listens to a song, rights holders are paid between 0.6 cent and 0.84 cent. Over the course of 2013, the company said, it will have paid $500 million in royalties, representing half of the $1 billion

All members share lead vocals, accompanied by harmonica, mandolin, bass, and a National ResoPhonic Guitar.

Stephen “Harpo” Born - Harmonica
Scott “Flapjaque” Southgate – Acoustic bass
C. "Bo-Dacious” - Mandolin, Banjo-Mandolin, washboard & percussion

Tuesday November 21, 2017
Upstairs at Cantab on 11/21/17 Tuesday BLUEGRASS
Pickin’ Party 8pm Feature @ 10pm: True Life Bluegrass
Opening act @ 8:30pm: High Strung Reunion • Downstairs BLUEGRASS Pickin’ Party 8pm http://cantab-lounge.com/public_html/cantab_calendar.html

On the 24th, Friday, • Cantab Upstairs DANCE BAND Perfect Example

True Life and Bluegrass Event Page https://www.facebook.com/events/142291106418765/

True Life Bluegrass has been a mainstay in the Boston-area bluegrass scene for over 30 years, and we are the longest-running band to play at the Cantab Lounge on Tuesday's bluegrass night. Even though we played our first show at the original Joe Val Day in 1985, we have bluegrass roots in the Boston area that pre-date that show by nearly two decades. Steve Watt (banjo and mandolin) has been playing bluegrass in the Boston area since he moved to Cambridge in the mid-60's and was an original board member of the Boston Bluegrass Union, the producer of the Joe Val Festival. Eric Levenson (bass) has been playing in the area for nearly as long, most notably touring the world with Joe Val's band, The New England Bluegrass Boys. Steve and Eric continue to host the weekly bluegrass jam at the Cantab every Tuesday, as they have for over the past 20 years.

True Life Bluegrass consists of:
Ellen Hays - guitar
Eric Levenson - bass
Laura Orshaw - fiddle
Michael Bean - resophonic guitar
Steve Watt - banjo & mandolin
Tony Watt - guitar & mandolin

After a mere 31 years, one of the most venerable bluegrass bands in the Boston area is heading into the studio to record our first project!
