Sean joined Band of Rascals a few years into our career, weeks before we got our management deal, and Marcus and I realized that his transition into the band might have been an interesting learning experience for him.
Anyone who has ever started a new job can relate to this. The weird feeling of wanting to perform, but not quite knowing what is expected of you by your new employers. It's the same for joining a band that has already existed in some form. Are you meant to do the same thing as the last person, or are you meant to do something new? Are you involved in the songwriting, or is that something you're not privy to? Are you now a part owner of the band and the corresponding revenues, or are you just a hired gun?
These are all questions that have to be navigated when you join a band - and it can be a painful experience depending on how it's handled.
In this episode, regardless to if you're joining a band, or having a new member join you band, you'll learn:
