TEM269: Have a strong opinion

Why you’re in trouble if your music doesn’t have a strong opinion.

On Today's Episode of The Entrepreneurial Musician:

  • Why blending in is the biggest threat to musicians today (and why it goes against our upbringing)

  • Five brass groups who all have a strong musical opinion

  • Why imitators never get long-term traction

  • Why the strong musical opinion must be obvious to your customers and not just to you

  • A quote from Bill Grundfest about not finding success by replicating someone else’s journey
