Twenty Percent of Zero | B.Knox on Staying Independent

<p>B.Knox is a Canadian singer-songwriter whose music sits somewhere between Alt-Country, Americana and the Folk traditions he grew up around. Raised between Newfoundland and Ontario, his songs carry traces of the East Coast homesickness, storytelling and old Celtic influences.In this Podcast, B.Knox talks about putting writing before performance, remaining fiercely independent, and navigating an industry that increasingly asks musicians to be content creators as much as artists. He gets into publishing deals, the economics of giving up a piece of your work, his complicated relationship with social media, and why privacy still has value.Chapters00:00 Newfoundland, Ontario &amp; Growing Up02:31 From Playing Covers to Writing His Own Songs05:18 Writing, Recording &amp; the Reality of Touring08:35 Publishing Deals &amp; Staying Independent09:43 Social Media, Privacy &amp; the Content Machine11:34 Songwriting Influences &amp; Newfoundland Roots15:12 Finding His Sound &amp; Letting the Songs Lead18:18 Personal Style, New Music &amp; Going AcousticSubscribe to The Rugged Revival.
