anyone have any tips or advice on how to use your art(in my case, music) to help fund a permaculture addiction?

Hello fellow Permies,

I am trying to use my "musical gifts" to help fund my permaculture journey - if you have a few minutes, would you mind listening/following/subscribing, to help me grow, and use my music "career" to help grow my garden?

YOUTUBE: watch a video or two, and consider subscribing?



if you use SPOTIFY, consider listening and saving/following, maybe add me to your "working in the garden" playlist?

and, if you use the service, follow me on INSTAGRAM?

TOO LONG, DIDN'T READ: what else should I do to help my music grow, so I can invest more in my permaculture design at home?


Thank you all for your input/support :)

Having a youtube is a good start, though getting monitized takes lots of work.

Consider doing a patrion, I sing professionally and yet I'm just now getting around to setting one up.  People pay an amount of their choice per month and you decide what all they get.  I'm setting mine up so any amount of money $5 or more gets people at least one concert a month from me, that only patrion members get to see, 45 min. for the one that is guaranteed and half hour for each additional one, though if there are additional concerts will depend on my other gigs that month etc.  The winter is my lean season performance wise, so this will be a way to bulk it up, I suggest it for you as well.

So I set up the patreon, and didn't like the platform, one thing is that its hard to upload videos of any decent length until you've been on there a while, so I scrapped it.  I'll just stick with facebook live concerts, busking in the park, shift to doing some live stuff on my youtube, link the payment options for tips.  And I do perform at faires and get paid during the warm months which I love to do.
