Authentic Team of people Michael Walker and his team is the real authentic deal! The amount of knowledge that was and is learned went above and beyond what was expected. I would not be where I am at without this teams expertise, Ari and Logan have been amazing support, I still have a lot to learn moving forward but I am extremely grateful for Modern Musician.

Taking the Gold Artist Program at Modern Musician Taking the Gold Artist Program at Modern Musician was a big step in my music career. I learned a lot of valuable things that helped me improve my habits and outlook on my music career, and I had a lot of breakthroughs that changed my thinking and approach around monetization, merch, email list building, and more. The best part of the program was getting to know other musicians and to have a really practical, inside view of what they're doing—the nuts and bolds of how an ad performed, how much they spent on shipping merch, how they figured out how to monetize their livestream, etc. One thing that holds me back from giving a 5-star review is the fact that, after following the coursework and really putting in the work, I'm operating at a STEEP loss which does not make my current setup viable in any way for me. Some of the business systems that have proven profitable for members of the Modern Musician team haven't worked as well for me—for example, the ad system that seemed to work well for others are insanely expensive for me to run, and shipping costs from Canada erase the profit margins on physical goods. I've spent a large portion of my time re-engineering the systems that were said to work when I joined the program. Becoming monetized and profitable was the main reason I joined, and that was a huge selling aspect of the course, so truthfully I am a little let down that I'm not seeing any returns. So, in the end, I'm going to get a result that works for me, but it's only because I'm willing to really put in the work and redesign it all, based partially on concepts I learned in the course. Overall, this is a fantastic group of people. It's a lot of work to implement the coursework, but if you do, you'll end up with a more organized system for running your business, connecting with fans, positioning your merch, and other aspects of being an indie musician!

Great People that truly care about who… Great People that truly care about who you are as a person and how they can help you be the best version of yourself so you can in turn go and serve your fans better than you could have before. All the coaches are top notch and give honest feedback about how you are the artist can serve your fans better. It's been the best experience I have ever had with coaching in the music business.

The process was eye-opening The process was eye-opening. I have led many organizations primarily from an operational capacity. This program made me step outside of that context and create a customer centric process, clearly laid out for me to understand. The people and the culture are outstanding. Everyone is committed to helping and seeing musicians succeed. I love being a part of a community that truly values the success of the client. Every musician in the program offers ideas and suggestions that have been gained via experience. Everyone helps everyone, because each of us have unique fans. It is truly an inspiring program that directs the musician to a servant leadership approach. I love this approach as well as this strong, caring, and committed community of musicians.

Modern Musician and it’s incredible… Modern Musician and it’s incredible team members are able to take the wild, woolly world of music marketing and distill it into a digital music ecosystem that makes sense for the fan journey. They’re masters at connecting the dots so things can be happening while you sleep—also freeing you up to make more music that connects with more people. Can’t say enough good things about this company and crew!
