01 IntroductionOne of the odd things about music is that a lot of people want to get into it but very few people understand how they'll get paid once they do.
Now of course, it's about making music first and foremost, but it can be handy to have an idea of how the music business does business. Apart from anything else, some of the sources of money are ones you can claim before you're signed. Which can help pay for new equipment or an out-of-town gig.
Knowing this stuff doesn't make you a bad person - it just means you'll be better armed to take on the business on your own terms.
In this section we'll look at:
- Income from record sales
- Income from songwriting
- Performance royalties
- Other sources of cash for bands
