In Review: June, July, August 2010

September 1, 2010 - 4 Comments

Hey everyone, let’s just say these last few months have been slightly hectic.

Between moving to a new city, starting a new day job, and playing music, I haven’t had much time for anything else.

Even though I haven’t been posting as often as I would like, I’m still happy to report that June, July and August were the highest months of traffic this site has ever seen. In the next few weeks, I’m hoping to write some more content ahead of time and get caught up on the posts I’ve missed.

Wayward Musician’s growth has been thanks, in part, to some of the articles here being featured on the popular blogs Music Think Tank and MicControl.

For all of you who have wandered over here from those sites, welcome!

I’m also happy to report that a Dutch translation of 30 Tips For The Typical Musician has been created! So feel free to thank @pimvandewerken for that.

Now moving on…

The articles featured were: Revealing Shakespeare’s Inner Pirate, 30 Tips For The Typical Musician, and Selling Out Your Shows Every Time, and all received a lot of great comments. Feel free to head on over there and add your own comments to the discussion if you missed out.

Lastly, thanks to all of you new subscribers here, I’m looking forward to hearing what you have to say.

    I’m glad I stumbled upon your site. I especially like the atypical advice, I believe it makes you stand out, which helps your brand and how people perceive the wayward musician brand.

    Keep up the great work!

    Cheers
