February 28: How to Create and Sell Meaningful Music in Profitable Ways, Continued!

February 7, 2023 By Jeremy Madsen

A discussion with Dr. Kristen R. Bromley & April Meservy GrandPre

February 28, 2023, 12:30–1:30 pm Mountain Time

As a continuation of their conference course, April and Kristen will share all the golden nuggets they weren’t able to get to during their conference presentation: the roles of song publishers, music publishers, and record labels; the use of aggregators like CD Baby, DistroKid, and TuneCore; how to receive royalty payments through ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC; the ins and outs of selling music through touring and performing, and more! If you are a musician who wants to get paid for your work, you won’t want to miss this Zoom discussion!

Bio: Dr. Kristen R. Bromley is a gifted and sought-after instructor, as well as a beloved performer and composer. In addition to directing ensembles and teaching guitar and jazz studies courses at BYU, Dr. Bromley works as a professional author, scholar, arranger, composer, performer and recording musician, and she is the owner and primary featured artist of Kristen R. Bromley Music, LLC.

Bio: April Meservy GrandPre, an award-winning singer-songwriter from Reno, NV, has toured and recorded extensively. April’s cover of U2’s “With or Without You” was featured during the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea, helping the top Canadian figure skating pair bring home gold and bronze medals. She has earned five Pearl Awards and the 2018 LDSFF “Audience Choice” award for music video, and she is a 2x Posi Music Awards finalist.
