Whoa, what was that?
Well, a few months back, someone by the name of Brian Young approached me with the idea of writing some music to the podcast.
He politely pointed out that for a podcast that has to do with the music industry, I had very little music on the show. I thought that was a fair point.
I’d thought about updating the music and adding a few things myself, but I have so little time for that.
Brian offered to put together some new music for me to use in the show, and I decided to take him up on it.
So, what you just heard is one of Brian’s tracks, and towards the end of the episode, you will also be hearing a couple more themes he put together for me.
Be sure to let us know what you think of the new tunes in the show notes.
With that, let’s jump into today’s interview.

Conclusion
And I’m back to wrap up the episode.
I hope you enjoyed the interview. I know I got lots out of it.
You might not know this, but one of the main ways I generate revenue for The Music Entrepreneur HQ is with my books and courses.
So, as always, I’m going to offer a gentle nudge to check out my current offer, The Essential Guide to Music Entrepreneurship.
I’ve received a lot of great feedback on this handbook. Christopher Sutton from Musical U said:
For any musician wondering what it’s going to take to make a living with their music in the modern world, this book is a tremendous all-in-one resource to answer that question for you.
