I’m a musician and Indie Shuffle was my first “break.”

It gave about 20,000 plays which BLEW MY MIND at the time. Nothing like waking up to a huge increase

Today I’m a modest success. Several songs have 1-2m plays on Spotify and I make $800 / month from streaming. It’s just something I do in my evenings for fun.

I owe my success to outlets Indie Shuffle and SubmitHub—- I’ve found Spotify really privileges discovery for major label artists.
