Would you become a shareholder in your favourite artists? Is Blockchain technology the key to the future of the music industry?
This week I spoke to Karl Parsons, founder of music tech startup BandShare about his solution to a problem so many artists face: not having the money upfront to pay for costs like recording, marketing or touring, creating a cycle where grassroots artists can't break out of their scene without securing highly-competitive grants or a record deal advance.
Karl shares his thoughts on my the industry is at a breaking point, and how Blockchain technology could be a gamechanger.
