In this episode of the Gig Boss Podcast, Adam sits down with Brett Newski, the mastermind behind the band Newski. With more than a decade of touring experience under his belt, Brett shares his insights on how to make a successful career in music today. He's a creative force and has found innovative ways to make money including merch items like abstract art, books he's written, and tshirts about Macaulay Culkin. He explains how Patreon saved his ass, and asks the question: "what's the next big merch thing for artists? Whats the next CD?". Brett and Adam discuss how to get music placed on editorial playlists, and what to do when you've got multiple artist names on Spotify, splitting the same fanbase in two.
Brett's positive spirit shines through as he shares his experiences and offers valuable advice for aspiring musicians. He's collaborated with musicians from bands like The Verve Pipe and Guster, bringing his 90s alternative rock and power pop sound to a new level.
Whether you're a music enthusiast, an aspiring artist, or just someone looking for inspiration, this episode is a must-listen. So sit back, relax, and join us as we chat with Brett Newski.
