    Thanks for directing me to this post. There’s a stage before any of these tips will work though – you have to build an audience! Promoting your band online can have a massive impact on sales, and therefore publishing royalties, live show fees, etc. Read our interview with British folk noir duo Bitter Ruin about how they have gone from the local music scene to international touring, using the web to stay connected with the fans they make along the way.
