Podcasts about music business

I'm so psyched to have sat down with Andy Frasco for this second installment of interviews from @northlands.live -- and this one is completely unfiltered, totally fun, and not to be missed!! Andy is super happy these days and riding the momentum right now in the wake of his latest album, Growing Pains. Life is Good in Frasco's World.Andy and I discuss his commitment to authenticity — and his live shows are a paradigm of getting real. Filled with tons of antics, the music is top-notch with Andy's band, The U.N., continuing to totally bring it.  They come to play and the energy is super infectious.With Growing Pains, Andy's unique lyricism is on full display and is filled with heartfelt confessions, life advice and empowering messages — much like his live shows. Andy is a unique, and inspirational artist, yet you never quite know when sh*t might go sideways, and this interview is certainly no exception — in a really great way!!  Show Notes:For more information about Northlands Music & Arts Festival, click here Click here for Andy Frasco & The U.N. tour dates--------------------------------Episode Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Andy Frasco and Roadcase Podcast04:32 The Unfiltered Interview with Andy Frasco08:55 Growing Pains: The New Album and Self-Production16:44 The State of the Music Industry30:58 Challenges Facing Artists Today39:58 Personal Growth and Authenticity51:14 The Future of Andy Frasco and His Music-------------------------------------Follow Roadcase on Instagram here:  @RoadcasepodFor more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

Flute 360 | Episode 332: "Is It the Universe…or God? Rethinking the Creative Process as a Flutist" In this solo episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay invites you into a vulnerable, soulful conversation about creativity, faith, and what it truly means to be a modern-day artist. Inspired by the Flute 360 Accelerator's June book club selection, The Creative Act by Rick Rubin, Heidi reflects on how the book reshaped her understanding of artistry — and how viewing “the Source” through a faith-based lens revealed a deeper truth: that we are co-creators with God. This is not just a book review. It's a gentle nudge for any flutist who's been questioning their identity, comparing their path to others, or wondering whether their art still matters in a season of change or healing. Whether you're playing, podcasting, composing, writing, or resting — this episode will remind you that your creativity is still valid. Still sacred. And still very much needed. Main Points: Why redefining “the Source” as God can ground and deepen your creative process The lie that says “If I'm not performing, I'm not creating” — and how to rewrite that story What it means to be a flutist in a season of injury, recovery, or transformation How to release comparison and show up in your own artistic lane with joy and freedom Why your artistry counts — even if it looks different than it used to How the Flute 360 Accelerator creates a space for flutists to reflect, grow, and connect Resources: Book: The Creative Act by Rick Rubin Join the Flute 360 Accelerator Program: Click Here to Enroll – Tier 1, 2, or 3 Subscribe + Review: If you loved this conversation, please subscribe and leave a review.

Neglect and abandonment, physical, emotional, and verbal abuse, narcissistic parents and a host of malcontents to add flavor and color to the toxic mix that was my childhood.Yet light always shines through, right? I channeled my talents, hopes and ambition into writing about music and became a rock journalist as a teenager. I toured with Kiss on a press junket at 19 in Japan. That was just the beginning!Please CELEBRATE with me today! My book is now available and I'm dancing around my apartment with a bottle of bubbly.

Starting in Japan from 1977 to 1984, she owned a talent and booking agency, introduced punk rock, was a DJ and, music journalist.

Vom Major zum Mindset. Julia Labonte-Stoy arbeitete über 25 Jahre in verschiedenen Schlüsselpositionen bei Warner Music – unter anderem als Head of Streaming und Head of Artist Relations. In dieser Zeit betreute sie international erfolgreiche Acts wie Charli XCX oder Robin Schulz und sammelte umfassende Erfahrungen in der sich ständig wandelnden Musikindustrie. Im Redfield Podcast spricht sie mit Alexander Schröder darüber, warum sie sich entschieden hat, die Konzernwelt zu verlassen und heute als holistische Coachin und Mediatorin tätig zu sein – mit Fokus auf die Musikbranche. Ergänzend begleitet sie als freiberufliche Artist- und Projektmanagerin Künstler:innen wie Frida Gold, die mit „Haus aus Gold“ gerade ihr eigenes Label gegründet haben. Julia berichtet offen über ihren Karriereweg, die Dynamik und Herausforderungen im Major-Bereich und wie sie ihre gesammelten Erfahrungen in ihre heutige Arbeit einbringt.

Pursuing a career in the arts or music is a journey filled with passion, creativity, and, often, immense challenges. It can feel like you're constantly pushing against a wall, struggling to be seen, heard, or valued in a crowded industry. The road to success is rarely a straight path—rejections, self-doubt, and setbacks can make even the most talented artists question whether to keep going. This happened to my friend Lonnie Park, now a Multi-Grammy® award winner. By leaning in to insurmountable challenges rather than retreating from them after being catapulted over the top of a quad vehicle, he took a huge step to mentally break through those setbacks. In this episode, we'll explore how embracing obstacles, staying adaptable, and refining your craft with strategic goals and relationships can transform hopelessness into potential success.
