I think for new artists the hardest thing is putting the face with a name. People maybe heard our song on the radio or something but until they get several impressions of who you are - from whatever it is, whether TV or a live show, I feel like they don't quite connect the dots.
People aren't interested in others controlling what they can do or read or see in the privacy of their own homes.
All my records have been written to be records, rather than writing a group of songs and seeing if they fit together.
