We’re calling this “The Money Issue” in-line with COMBO’s upcoming program on “Getting Paid: Creative Ways to Reward Musicians for Live Performances”. We have several articles on making a living from your music in other ways. Be sure to check them all out.

I find it interesting that Chick Corea and Betty Davis both passed away on February 9th. Betty was married to Miles Davis, and Chick played for both Miles and Betty on their albums!
