This podcast is all about the economics of rock and roll, from a New York perspective. There's a million bands out there, and almost as many clubs. Not to mention the complexities of streaming, advertising, music videos, and merch. How to navigate all that? To answer that question, host Ryan Bazinet (creator of the group No Love Songs) talks to musicians, bookers, engineers -- anybody who can share best practices so that bands can more efficiently build off of prior experience. Don't reinvent the wheel, or the pentatonic scale. Listen to this podcast and get to work getting your music out. <br/><br/><a href="https://nolovesongs.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast">nolovesongs.substack.com</a>
