About

The Music Business Source is a website and blog dedicated to making sense out of the music business. Founded by longtime musician, producer and marketing consultant Michael Barry, the Source is a place where musicians and music lovers can share information to help each other reach their highest potential in the rapidly changing world of music.

With so much information out there and plenty of people ready to take advantage of the unwary, musicians need to work together to sort through all the hype and find out what is really going to work for them. The Music Business Source will offer articles and tips on music marketing, music publishing, music licensing, performance, recording and earning money from your music in the digital age.

Every week we will scour the music business to bring you new information, developing music resources, links to great video/audio content, and new products and information to help you learn to profit in this challenging but wonderful business of yours.

And that is the real purpose. It’s your business, but you have to claim it and learn how to handle it, so it doesn’t handle you. The Music Business Source is here to help.
