Music theater is ephemeral by nature and many of the songs we hear coming from our stages never make it to commercial streaming services like Spotify, Apple, Amazon or Google. Major record labels just aren't that interested in new musical theatre works and some artists are turning to an "Indie" label as a result. It's relatively simple to manage the song distribution for a single artist or group and the good news is that most streaming services will pay you royalties directly for each time someone plays your music.

First you'll need to apply for a label ID or GTIN so your brand can be uniquely identified online. The cost is relatively small, but many of today's music streaming services have lots of independent labels and GS1 US provides you with a W-9 for any end of year tax liabilities. Let us know if you have any questions, we'd be happy to help.
