I see bands out there trying to do this all themselves. That’s bananas. There are a dozen different jobs that should be done for a band to succeed. How could a band do it all themselves?
The bands I know were started by artists and performers who wanted to express themselves, not become professional reel makers.
Some of them are getting burned out trying to do 6 different jobs for their bands and it makes me sad.
Incubator is a community with shared resources: equipment, space, people, expertise. We’re all working together to support bands.
Let bands be bands. It’s already a lot to write and perform your art. You don’t need to worry about the other stuff if you have a whole community supporting you.
Hopefully Incubator can be a place where bands can just be bands. Where artists can focus on their art and not have to worry about how to market it.
As we grow in size, we’ll be able to offer our musicians more resources to help them succeed.
