A checklist of the work you should do before you even record a single note for an album
The importance of committing to social media but also committing to not using it too much
Why your marketing needs to be just as creative as your art and an example of what can happen when it’s not
The power of giving your fans a peek behind the curtain (even when what you’re showing them can feel awfully boring to you)
