For this episode airing on Halloween, we have some very scaaaary sync licensing stories that may or may not have been told by a witch. Ok, so that’s not exactly true.

They aren’t scary stories and aren’t told by a witch…or are they?

I’ve told you many times many times about when I first heard about this thing Sync Licensing on a podcast. A lady named Cathy Heller was talking about how artists and songwriters could make music income by getting their songs into TV, film, advertising, and videos games.

Hearing that podcast was basically a "turn that car around" moment for me professionally and changed the path of both my music business and my personal music focus.

I went from producer back to composer, eventually getting both my first sync deal with a BMG library AND a master’s degree in music composition. Scary twist? Not really.

Well, today I’m going to speak with Sonnet Simmons of  @2indieofficial  who was part of that journey with Cathy Heller and their company Catch the Moon, and now works in, and teaches others, about sync licensing through her podcast 2Indie.
