Music artists are the heart and soul of any venue that people visit.
Music is played in stores, restaurants, churches, malls, clubs, events, and everywhere else that we go. These independent artists get paid royalties to be played in places like these, and they deserve every penny of it. Why not discover a local artist that you’ve never heard of, and if you like it, then share their name. Telling others about who you discover could lead to them getting paid more and more in royalties. Not to mention, they could get booked for a show by someone else that loves their music!
