Description

What if, like Will, you have a bunch of music written and ready to release and now have to decide what order to release everything? Something has to go first, what are the most important factors in deciding which track is going to be the first one you show the world? Even if you release an album or EP, one song has to be the grand opener. 
Now, of course, this is going to be different for each person and each genre of music. But there are a plethora of factors to take into account, from song length to complexity, it's about honing in on what your music needs to say from the word GO! 
We discuss Will's upcoming release and some of the final, yet impossible decisions which have to be made before anything can actually find its way onto the big stage - streaming platforms!

So, you’re a Musician? You’ve got no idea what to do next? Welcome to the club! OpenBack is the weekly podcast where Will and Tristan discuss surviving the music industry. Covering the perils, the joys, networking and how to ration a packet of pasta for a month when the wedding show you played never pays up. No one really knows the answers so let’s break down this abstract world together, and hopefully, next time you're asked at a family party, “so what job are you aiming to get from all this,” you can politely tell them to get lost.
