In this episode, Lindsey is joined by her long time friend, Johnny Dwinell. Few people have experienced the music business from as many different angles as Johnny. An expert in the fields of digital marketing and social media growth and engagement, he has worked with some of music’s most notable names, produced albums, co-founded a well-known music business podcast and started a Nashville-based artist development company ... all after fronting his own band, Kidd Gypsy, that was produced by Allman Brothers front-of-house mastermind, Bud Snyder.
Johnny co-founded Daredevil Production in 2012 with a focus on breaking artists in the digital world. Over the years, he has headed up digital marketing for cruises featuring popular artists like Tracy Lawrence, Ty Herndon, Jamie O’Neal and Andy Griggs. John’s marketing expertise was also used to sell out shows for country music legends T.G. Sheppard, Ronnie McDowell and BJ Thomas.
On today’s episode, Johnny and Lindsey talk about their favorite subject: Industry BS. With a keen eye for how the digital space has changed the playing field for artists, both Lindsey + Johnny have shared a passion for exposing the archaic and outdated methods the traditional music business uses - and why they no longer work in today’s world.
Get ready, people, because this episode is going to blow. your. mind.

In this episode, Lindsey talks about how to unblock yourself so you can fully step into a business, a career, and a life that you really love and that you truly deserve.
It is not up to a music executive, or vocal coach, or music industry pro to determine whether or not you have what it takes. The most important thing you need to know is that if you desire it, it is for you.
Join Lindsey as she helps you get past the noise and the list of responsibilities and instead lean into the belief that your desires are worthy and you are worthy of pursuing your desires.

In this episode, Lindsey reminds us that no matter where you are, where you came from, what struggles you’re facing … you are enough. You are here to do amazing things in this world.
As artists, if you don’t step into your strength and authenticity, the people who need to hear your words, lyrics and music, will never never get to hear them. And you will miss the opportunity to affect lives and change the world.
Join Lindsey as she dives deep into the magic of your belief and the effect it has on your life & business.

When I first heard the song Stupid Girl by Jennifer Nettles, it absolutely shook me to the core. It is incredibly meaningful to me and in many ways it’s been the cornerstone of my approach to business, how I show up for my clients, and my personal brand.
I want to highlight conversations around the reality that most of us as little girls were fed messages that “you’re silly”, “that’s not for you”, “why don’t you be more responsible?”, ”why can’t you just be satisfied with what you do have?” When it came to our dreams of pursuing a career as an artist or creative. Our stories have value and they’re simply not discussed often enough, so I want to share the unique and yet similar realities most young girls have shared on their path to chasing their dreams.
In this episode of The Stupid Girl series with co-host Sarah Clanton, who is currently one of my clients, we focus on what’s possible when we lose our limiting beliefs and the stories we’ve been telling ourselves for years of the way it’s “supposed” to be … and live in our true authenticity.

In this episode, Lindsey peels back the curtain of the new music industry and talks about the real possibilities that exist as an artist.
She challenges artists to look at possibilities through the lens of these 4 things:
- Is it consistent?
- Is it repeatable?
- Is it scalable?
- Does it have a strong ROI?
If it is not any of those things, it is not a worthwhile spend because getting more followers or more clicks on your ad is not going to pay the bills. The true possibilities that exist for artists are rooted in the development of their personal brand.
“We are not selling music. As artists, we are selling emotion. We are selling an experience. We are selling something that makes somebody feel a certain kind of way. And so until we understand what it is that we are making people feel or what it is that we want to make people feel, we don't really have a sense of what it is that we're actually selling.”

As an artist, we are conditioned to believe we need a manager in order to have a successful career. But Lindsey is here to tell you that having a coach is far more valuable and is going to get you further faster as an artist. It’s your secret weapon in terms of your ability to be successful.
In this episode, Lindsey dives into the top 3 reasons you need a coach, not a manager.
“Having a coach as an artist … is going to be your most secret weapon in terms of your ability to be successful.”

Welcome to Revolutionize: A podcast Revolutionizing the Music Business with Lindsey Kirkendall.
Lindsey has spent the last decade working on the corporate side of the music industry while also closely studying digital marketing trends and online entrepreneurship. She is a music business consultant, artist, mom & wife.
In this episode, she dives into why the traditional music industry is dying and why you will never create a thriving career as an artist by following the traditional music industry's model. After decades of the old, exploitative music business model, Lindsey is here to show you how to create the career of your dreams and get paid what you’re worth. Viva la revolución!
“I'm revolutionizing the music industry for you, for me, and for every female artist out there who has ever felt like she didn't have the right support, enough funding, or lack of belief in her gifts. Or even worse, she believed she was too old, had too many kids or had the wrong waist size. I'm here to tell you none of that stuff matters anymore.” - Lindsey Kirkendall
