Your Smart Marketing Stack: Combining AI Automation with Web3 Monetization |
Why Indie Artists Need a Smarter System
Being an independent artist today means dealing with an overwhelming digital reality. There’s over 900 years’ worth of music already sitting on platforms like Spotify, and thousands of new songs are uploaded every single day. It’s easy to get lost in the noise—and that’s not your fault. The system isn’t built for indie artists to thrive; it’s built for volume, not value. That’s why it’s time to work smarter, not harder. |

Marketing your music as an independent artist can feel like a never-ending uphill battle. It’s not just about writing great songs or playing great shows anymore. You’re expected to be a content creator, graphic designer, data analyst, social media strategist, and advertising expert—all while still finding time to be a musician. And the landscape keeps getting more competitive. Spotify alone holds over 900 years’ worth of music, and thousands of new tracks are uploaded every single day. No matter how great your songs are, the reality is this: if people don’t know you exist, they’re not going to press play. Which is why we are going to create a series of articles on “The Other Side” of AI and how it can be used by Indie artists to level the playing field with it comes to marketing their music. |

Our Cover Artist Lisa Mann |
|
Two-time Blues Music Award-winning artist Lisa Mann brings her powerhouse talent straight from the blues-rich scene of Portland, Oregon. Originally hailing from West Virginia, Mann’s vocal style seamlessly blends southern warmth with a dynamic edge cultivated from mastering genres ranging from hard rock to rhythm and blues. Her songwriting showcases clever, gritty, and often humorous Americana and blues narratives, skillfully matched by her exceptional prowess on bass guitar. Her grooves deliver the undeniable solidity reminiscent of iconic rhythm sections like Muscle Shoals’ Swampers or Motown’s Funk Brothers. |
