In this episode, we talk about what comes AFTER the music. You can't just expect to release a project (even a GREAT one) that instantly takes off without any marketing on your part. Instead, we walk you through common mistakes that artists make after releasing their music and what steps YOU need to take in order to connect your project to your audience.

What can YOU do to promote your music once you've released it?
