In this podcast, he discusses how his music journey started from hearing Oh Pretty Woman on a jukebox, to working for his local radio station at 16, then to Sirius XM, and finally Spotify. Marks explains his comment on how Spotify is the “new retail storefront for artists.” With so many more opportunities, now, for artists— the artist’s page on Spotify is like directing store traffic and is a primary way to activate fans’ interest (like selling merch and displaying tour dates). “You have a world wide audience at your disposable, all you need to do is be creative and find ways to tap into that”What role should social media play? The most important and basic answer from Marks is— the biggest one. He says the 3 most best practices for an artist and their audience’s are— SaveShareFollow “[Social media] is the most essential ingredient ever, and that’s all there is to it”So, where is Spotify headed? John Marks says Canvas, a few seconds of a gif made by an artist for their song, is more than likely going to be introduced to the Spotify world.

This week we bring you a professional songwriting panel recorded live at Full Circle Music Studios at our Songwriting Retreat Secret Event. Joining our panel, we have Marti Dodson (Saving Jane), Ben Calhoun (Citizen Way), and veteran songwriters Tony Wood and Bruce Wallace (We know what you are thinking but no, not Bruce Willis). Seth Mosley moderates the panel and asks a series of questions that attendees of our secret event came up with:–How do you get through writer’s block? –How did you get into the industry and get a publishing deal? –How often or what length of time are you writing each week? –How do you know when a song is good enough and when do you know when it’s finished? –What inspires you?Be sure to follow us at our new Instagram and Facebook at @officialfcmusic to stay up to date with everything going on in the world of Full Circle Music.As always, thanks for listening and be sure to give us a review on iTunes if you have not already done so.The post <a href="http://fullcirclemusic.org/fcm079/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">FCM079 – How To Make Songwriting A Career Instead Of A Hobby Live From FCMA Songwriters Retreat 2017</a> appeared first on <a href="http://fullcirclemusic.org" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Full Circle Music</a>.
