Advantages Of Hiring A Recording Artists
When planning a party, you have to choose crucial things such as the venue, décor, seating arrangement, and of course entertainment for the invited guests. Providing entertainment during an event is one of the most vital aspects of planning a party as it determines how good the party will be. Invited guests not only judge a party based on the décor or food but also on how much they enjoyed themselves. Therefore, if you are planning a party, it is important to ensure that you fully entertain your guests. And, what better way to achieve that than to hire a recording artists? Hiring a music artist for your party is a wise move that will bring you the following advantages.

  • Interesting atmosphere: The major advantage of hiring a music artist is that your party will be much more interesting. It is better to hear a live performance than to listen to the recordings of your favorite songs. Guests at the party will have a great time as they will get to experience the thrill and excitement of listening and watching a live performance.
  • Creating life long memories: A live performance is something that will stick in the minds of your guests forever. Your party will be talked about long after it passes and will always be remembered with fond memories for years to come. What’s more, you can capture great occasions of the party such as the live performances via videos as well as take pictures with the music artist or artists therefore ensuring that the day will never be forgotten.
  • Unique experience: Most people tend to hire DJs or have recorded music playing during parties. If you want your party to stand out, music artists are the way to go. There is just something unique about a live performance that delivers an exceptional experience that cannot be compared to anything else. The experience is even made better when the artist uses high tech audiovisual equipment such as good quality speakers, intelligent lighting, and fog.
  • Add some fun to corporate events: When hosting corporate events, many organizers shy away from incorporating some entertainment into the occasion. Quite the contrary, a bit of fun is required in corporate functions to bring some enjoyment for the guests. Hiring a music artist for a corporate event will break the strict formality and add some life to the occasion.
  • Flexibility: With recorded music you will only get to hear songs as they were originally recorded but live performances are more flexible. The artist can make creative and interesting alterations in songs thereby pleasing the guests and giving a more exclusive performance.
  • One on one connection: Live performances create a one on one connection between the artist and the guests. Aside from enjoying the musical instruments being played and the voice of the artist, guests get to interact with the musician and can even get on stage and join in on the singing. But, with a DJ or recorded music, the artist remains hidden behind all of the music.

How Recording Artists Get Paid
Making it in the music industry is not easy. In fact, several music artists have to struggle for years before finally getting a breakthrough. However, when the artist finally manages to sign up with a good recording studio, releases songs, and manages to gain a huge fan base then he or she will finally be able to reap the years spent fighting to make it. A popular music artist is paid by a river that is fed by many small streams and that is why every gig landed counts. These artists manage to make money in the following ways:

  • Radio: Every radio station worldwide is required to pay money to Performance Rights Organizations (PROs) for the right to play music to a large audience. The organizations then do some calculations and write a check to the music artist. Songs that make it to local or global charts also earn the music artist money. The higher the song is on the chart the more money it brings the artist.
  • Digital sales: Aside from buying CDs and albums, people also buy music on online stores and download songs from iTunes. The music sold on the various digital platforms earns the music artist some money. The amount of money earned depends on the agreement made between the musician and his/her recording company.
  • Publishing royalties: Some music artists write songs through which they earn publishing royalties. The publishers give the artists an advance on their earnings once a publishing contract is signed. When sales start coming through, the publisher then pays the artist more money depending on the stipulations found within the signed contract. The payment rate can be set as low as 8 cents per song per CD to as high as a few dollars.
  • Record royalties: Making money from record royalties is not easy and is only possible when the music artist sells many records. Every record contract is different from one artist to the next but all record deals charge the artist a certain fee incurred in making and selling the music. Once the fee is fully paid, then the artist begins making money. If the music sells poorly then the music artist may never get a dime from the record label.
  • Music sales: The most obvious way in which music artists make money is through Physical Merchandize Sales, that is the selling of CDs. Music artists have the option of buying their released CDs from their recording label or have the label sell the CDs and then pay an agreed upon amount. CDs can be sold in stores, online, and at concerts. Physical Merchandize Sales is one of the ways in which music artist make most of their money.
  • Christian Copyright Licensing International (CCLI): Churches pay CCLI fees in order to sing copy written songs by music artists during services. Though most people do not agree with this practice the music artists do profit from it.
  • Live performances: Music artists make most of their money from being hired for live performances. The live performances can be anything from world tours, to concerts, and yes being hired to perform during events such as weddings and corporate galas.
