Succeed in your music career by following industry news. Here’s where to start
Music industry can be a tricky place — the gap between the top earners and the mid-level professionals is one of the largest across the board. It’s difficult to find media that can provide you the useful information that you want while at the same time not leaving you feeling empty and like you could never get where the top players are.
But don’t give up — there are plenty of industry media that serve inspiring interviews, thoughtful features, useful tech reviews, fun playlists and show reviews, and some will even accept a press release about your upcoming show or album!
