What's the biggest problem bitcoin solves, or might solve, for musicians?
reply
298 sats \ 2 replies \ @kathryn OP 20 Mar
The biggest thing Bitcoin solves for Musicians in my opinion is they way you're payed, which in turn changes everything/solves a ton of problems. Instead of waiting for a quarterly payment from ASCAP or BMI (Publishing Rights Organizations), which most likely is less than a dime. You are getting payed directly, and you see exactly who is paying you with a time stamp. Instead of waiting to get payed for the show you played two months ago, you have it in your account as you're preforming, as well as directly after you get off the stage. Not to mention streaming, where an artist receives fractions of pennies per stream, on Wavlake or Fountain someone could send you a dollar. And if a few thousand people are doing that, boom now you can pay rent, and maybe even tour.

Is Bitcoin solving a problem for you ?
reply
451 sats \ 1 reply \ @kathryn OP 20 Mar
Yes and no. Right now because the value for value space is so new, the return on investment is low. That said, I have seen more money from Bitcoin releasing two singles in three months than I have releasing a five song ep and a single over five years on DSP's(Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music etc.).

Yes!! I have two songs out on Fountain right now! Socrates is more of a sultry, come home to me baby type song. And Lemons is the exact opposite, the tag saying "you can't make lemons out of lemonade". I will link them above!

Not counting Nashville or Austin, what do you think the next music capital cities are on the list? USA or otherwise
reply
49 sats \ 0 replies \ @kathryn OP 20 Mar
I think Chicago, New Orleans and Atlanta all have their own music scenes going that are getting bigger and bigger. Austin and Nashville have the biggest country scenes in my opinion, but not way less of any other genre.

What are your 1-year goals for:
- Music
- The Podcast
- Your Personal Brand?
reply
0 sats \ 1 reply \ @kathryn OP 20 Mar
- Music: Have AT LEAST 5 new songs come out by the end of the year, and be able to preform them live!
- The Podcast: Grow and find an audience that enjoys the authenticity that Ainsley and myself have when we talk about this whole new world. It would be a win for me if even a few people were educated in a way they can understand thats not super techy.

personal brand: I want to see myself try new things, as in playing band shows more. As well as settle into a brand that feels unapologetically true to myself in the way that I write but as well as the way I carry myself into any sort of artist event.

What's something you believe about the music business that few musicians would agree with you?
reply
222 sats \ 0 replies \ @kathryn OP 20 Mar
Coming with the hard hitters! I would say that focusing on the business side of things is extremely important, not that many I think would disagree fully, but I could argue that the business side is more important that the creative. In order to allow yourself the best space to be creative you need to have a strategy to have the best outcome.

That's hard because honestly everything in the music industry is surprising once you get a little deeper into it. But the most surprising was learning that the majority of artist don't write their own music!! I was stunned!

What's your favorite venue to play in Nashville?
reply
101 sats \ 0 replies \ @kathryn OP 20 Mar
My favorite venue to play in Nashville was Belcourt, it was right in Hillsborough but in the past few years with Covid it wasn't able to stay open. Such a loss, but it was the coolest, smallest, community driven place.
