The whole interview is great, but the last few paragraphs on advice to young musicians are brilliantly helpful.

“Be voracious when it comes to uncovering the secrets of the music business and how people outside the music business behave as entrepreneurs.”

And I wish more of my fine art friends would embrace this mentality (primarily so they can keep making art):

“[Art and business] seem diametrically opposed, but I don't think you can survive being just an artist or just a businessperson. If you're only business, you will lack the flair that attracts an audience. If you're only flair, you'll be taken advantage of.”
