Over the past two months I’ve been going through something of a renaissance in my musical and professional life. I suddenly and without seemingly any care, walked away from a teaching job I had been doing on the side for two and half years. The job brought security and insurance, and fulfilled a decade long desire to add teaching as an income stream. But it was also, unfortunately, a bit if a trap, and other than refocusing me to where I am now…I think it might have been a complete waste of my time. In fact, I think I’ve been wasting time for decades. So today, I want to talk about how to know if you’re wasting time on things that are taking away from the music life you’ve always wanted.

Get Your Music to TV, Film, Ads, and Gaming: https://payhip.com/b/KtoqH For this episode airing on Halloween, we have some very scaaaary sync licensing stories that may or may not have been told by a witch. Ok, so that’s not exactly true. They aren’t scary stories and aren’t told by a witch…or are they? I’ve told you many times many times about when I first heard about this thing Sync Licensing on a podcast. A lady named Cathy Heller was talking about how artists and songwriters could make music income by getting their songs into TV, film, advertising, and videos games. Hearing that podcast was basically a "turn that car around" moment for me professionally and changed the path of both my music business and my personal music focus. I went from producer back to composer, eventually getting both my first sync deal with a BMG library AND a master’s degree in music composition. Scary twist? Not really. Well, today I’m going to speak with Sonnet Simmons of @2indieofficial who was part of that journey with Cathy Heller and their company Catch the Moon, and now works in, and teaches others, about sync licensing through her podcast 2Indie.
