How to Network Like a Boss

29m · Published 26 Aug 11:00

They say your network is your net worth and especially in the music industry your network is super important to getting more opportunities that can propel your career.

Disclaimer: Your network isn't a substitute for good music! But it certainly can put you ahead of other bands or businesses who aren't in the know.

I get asked about networking a lot and over the past few years, I can safely say I've naturally grown a quality network of musicians and industry pros all around the globe.

So I'm putting it all out there in this latest pod episode (recorded live on IG for y'all). These are the no BS ways I grew a network that supports my own band, my clients and my business!

Quantum Leaping Your Music Career With Emmy Mack of Redhook

45m · Published 29 Jul 07:30

Today, I'm catching up with one of my long-time good friends Emmy Mack of the Australian heavy rock/nu-metal band, Redhook!

Redhook are a band that got the formula right from the get-go and by the time they released their second single, they had completely quantum-leapt in their careers.  But whilst Redhook make it look easy on the outside, it wasn't always the case.

Join us for this chat where Emmy talks about her journey thus far, what she and her band still take care of even though they have a manager and booking agency, and how to grow when you feel like you've hit a plateau. 

Emmy is also an accomplished music journalist and staple in the Australian music industry so it was a pleasure to chat with her about the highs and lows of pursuing this rather unconventional pathway.\

Are You Focused On The Audience Or Yourself?

25m · Published 15 Jul 03:25

On this wild journey to becoming 'successful' - whatever that means to you - sometimes we can get caught up in our own egos, insecurities and goals and forget about the audience i.e. your customers!

In this episode, we dive into what it takes to provide the best experience possible for your customers in a live setting and online! If we can shift the focus away from ourselves, I believe it'll lead to being much more fulfilled on this path and in life!
