Publisher's summary

The Dark Side of Indie Survival is informative, entertaining, and a pleasure to listen to. People everywhere in the world are trooping into the entertainment industry to find a spot for themselves. This is because the entertainment industry has proven to be very enterprising and profitable. However, many people give up before achieving anything tangible because they fail to get signed by a big record label. Getting signed by a record label is not a bad idea; however, being an independent artist isn't less profitable. Being by yourself without getting the support that you see others get might be very discouraging. That is how the situation was in the past, before the digitization of the music industry through technology. In this book, I examined indie music's evolution and the differences between a record label artist and an independent artist.

This book also examines the sometimes overwhelming challenges of an indie artist. The various emotional, professional, and marketing strategies that an artist may face by himself or herself are extensively discussed and analyzed. As an aspiring independent artist or musician or a music fan who may know indie artists and musicians, you will find this valuable book in your struggle to build a name against the odds or get a better understanding of the indie life. The book explains the three categories of challenges and explains the fundamental methods of coping and developing as an indie musician. It teaches indie musicians, their extended fan base, families, and friends what it takes and means to do it all themselves in today's modern world and in a pandemic.
