PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER April 22, 2026 Hey there, Profitable Musician! I usually write this newsletter on Wednesdays, but I didn’t want you to miss this because the Unstoppable Singer Summit starts today. And there’s something about it that I think a lot of singers overlook. We all get pulled toward the exciting stuff. More fans. More income. More visibility. That’s the part everyone talks about. That’s the part that feels fun to imagine. But, that’s not the part that actually...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION April 17, 2026 Happy FEM Music Friday! I was sitting at a round table with a paper plate of that soupy hash brown casserole they always served. You know the kind. It doesn’t look like something you should trust… but somehow it’s the best thing on the table. I only came once a month, and even that felt like a luxury back then. It was a mom's group called Mothers of Preschoolers. I went for the childcare, honestly. Ninety minutes where someone else...

And since I have the unique vantage point of reviewing hundreds of new songs each month, I have to tell you about the trends I'm seeing... There’s more music being created than ever. And with the use of AI, especially AI Recording Artists, a lot of it sounds polished. Even impressive at first listen. But none of...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER April 8, 2026 Hey there, Profitable Musician! I want to say something out loud, because I know this has been sitting in the background for a lot of you. AI is not replacing real music. It can’t. It doesn’t have a life.It hasn’t lived through anything.It doesn’t know what it’s like to lose someone, start over, fall apart, rebuild, learn a lesson that only boots-on-the-ground can teach. It can’t write from a human place. It can only imitate. That’s the...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION April 3, 2026 Happy FEM Music Friday! We spend a lot of time focused on what to do to grow a music career. Post more. Email your fans. Book shows.

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER April 1, 2026 Hey there, Profitable Musician! Q2 is here! It may be April Fools Day, but I'm dead serious when I talk about this dangerous trap I see musicians like you fall into again and again. It's the thing standing between you and real progress this quarter, and it probably isn't what you think it is. It's not a lack of talent. It's not a lack of ideas. If anything, you have too many of those. Here's what I see constantly with artists: you've got...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION March 27, 2026 Happy FEM Music Friday! I want to share something that might gently challenge the way you’ve been thinking about “getting ahead” in your music career. So many of us are taught to look up. To chase the people who are further along. To try to get in the room with the biggest names, hoping that proximity will somehow fast-track our progress. I totally tried to do this in my early years. I remember hurling my CD at industry reps as they came...
