Why Tailwind Isn't for Me

Earning $800 / Month With Spotify
I'm making over $800 per month with my music— almost exclusively through Spotify. This up from $400 per month last year. I don't tour, I don't sell merch and I'm not on a major label. I'm just a small indie artist making music in my evenings— and Spotify is making that possible.
