5 Top Tips for Performing Artistes


Hey everyone! Currently we are in the middle of what I refer to as carnival preparation season. Performing Artistes are meeting with producers to create new tracks for carnival 2k17 and they are also booking gigs for their performances at the upcoming season. Over the past five years in my law practice, I have noticed that every season, the industry is faced with similar issues and as such I have decided to compile the answers to frequently asked questions.  I am excited that Music TT agreed with my vision for educational videos and partnered with me to film and edit the content. Here is the first video targeted specifically to performing artistes, I do hope that you enjoy and find it useful as you prepare for your business endeavours this season and beyond!
