About this listen

Backstage Money embarks on an incisive examination of the intersection between artistry and financial literacy, an area often neglected within the music industry. Hosted by Jason K. Powers, these episodes will introduce an array of artists who articulate their personal experiences and insights regarding the financial realities of a career in music. The discussions highlight the pressing need for musicians to cultivate an understanding of their income streams, particularly given the contemporary landscape dominated by digital platforms that often yield meager financial rewards unless the artist reaches an extraordinary level of commercial success.

Throughout the episodes, we'll dialogue about the dichotomy between the artistic passion that fuels their endeavors and the pragmatic financial considerations that underpin their careers. While the allure of living in the moment may be enticing, it is imperative to recognize that financial obligations loom large, necessitating careful planning and proactive management of one’s finances. Artists share candid anecdotes regarding the challenges of balancing creativity with financial sustainability, underscoring the notion that the business of music requires as much attention as the music itself.
