Here are some interesting thoughts about the the music industry from Kate Pierson of the quirky alternative band the B-52's.
Kate talks about the issues presented in the movie "Before the Music Dies"
“They talked a lot about branding in the movie and you’ve just never heard that term that much before. The band as a brand. It’s just a weird way that musicians have to be partly business-people now. You have to be aware of what’s going on, and I think that’s a good thing because before musicians were like, ‘Oh, we just wanna play music’ and let someone else take care of it. Musicians now, especially older musicians, realize we’ve gotta know what’s going on. A lot of it’s positive.”
