The effects of the pandemic have shone a light on the challenges DIY creatives in music face in terms of sustaining an income in the current climate of a contentious royalties system and a locked-down live circuit. It’s never been more important for artists to understand the different ways they can generate income from their practice.

In this online workshop, we discuss how to take control of your fan engagement, moving sales off social platforms and streaming services onto services like the increasingly popular Bandcamp, to develop your own fanbase.

This is an online event created by Young Guns Network and presented by Multi-Track via Zoom.
