Why are you making (and assuming recording/distributing) music? It's what I love doing.

Are you supplementing your live performances with backing tracks? I use BIAB backing tracks for my original songs in my solo shows. I haven't tried making BIAB tracks for covers yet but it will be in my near future.

Are you recording your songs to create something to sell at your gigs? Yes, My last album was created using BIAB and I sell them at my shows.

Are you strictly into the studio/recording side and don't perform live? I love both.

Is it just a hobby or your livelihood? I play music for a living.

In a nutshell - what is your end game? Where do you see your music next year or in 5 years? Currently I am working on getting into music licensing. I hope that within a couple years I will have multiple placements that will be providing a steady income. Ultimately, I hope that one day when I can't play live shows anymore I will be able to survive off of royalties form licensing deals.

Would love to know your thoughts.

Thanks!
