Navigating the music industry as an indie artist is like trying to be heard in a sea of voices. With the high costs of producing music and minimal earnings (think about it: only £0.006 per Spotify stream!), covering expenses is a distant dream. To match the earnings from a single £10 CD, a staggering 1,666 streams are needed!
