Hi, I’m Landon Austin!
I am a full-time independent musician based out of Nashville, TN. I first added my music to Spotify in 2015, and since then I've generated over 260 million streams. I've consistently had songs featured in massive playlists, on Sirius satellite, and in major ad campaigns. I've done this all completely independently without the help of a publisher, label, or even a manager. Since I've been independent for my whole career, its been my responsibility to promote my music, figure out the best way to distribute it, and how to hunt down ALL of my royalties. Check out my course below if you want to learn the best ways to monetize your music as an independent musician in 2021!
In this course you will learn:
- Practical tips on how to get more streams!
- What royalties are owed to you and how to get them! (Its amazing how much money people leave on the table).
- I will show you my earnings statements so you can see the REAL pay rates of big stores like Spotify, Apple Music, and Google Play.
