Music Therapy with Jessica Risker
Music:Music Interviews
There comes a time in every musician's career when you ask yourself: should you get a publicist?
In this episode of Music Therapy I talk with a real-life publicist, Colin Smith of Fresh Paint PR. Colin breaks down exactly what a publicist does, how a publicist chooses to work with someone (or not), and what you can do to make a PR campaign successful.
We also discuss the biggest question of all: what exactly does publicity accomplish for a musician? The answer may surprise you!
Song featured: "The Waves" by Jessica Risker. Interstitial music by David Yontz.
