So Much To Do…

Releasing a single can’t be difficult, can it?

That’s what I thought. But there’s a lot involved—especially if you actually want people to hear it.

There are so many things I hadn’t really thought about before. For example:

Is the recording actually good enough for Spotify and Apple Music? It might sound great on my speakers, but how does it sound through phone speakers or cheap earbuds?
I need to pick a distributor that can get my music on all the major platforms.
I need one that properly protects my rights and collects any money that comes in.
Without any promotion, it’s dead on arrival—so social media, ads, playlists, all of that.
To even exist online as an artist, I need a logo, colors, fonts, a consistent look.
I can’t avoid getting proper photos taken. Music needs a face.
Videos matter now. A lot.
Wait… do I even have a website yet?
Have I done enough networking?

Looking at this list sometimes makes my heart sink.

But still—I’m excited. I’m proud of the music. And I want the world to hear it.

So let’s go.

As John Lennon used to say when the lads were feeling down or worried:

“Where’re we goin’, fellas?”
“To the top, Johnny!”

“And where’s that, fellas?”
“To the toppermost of the poppermost!”
