The best working relationships in music have one thing in common: trust. However, it's not as easy to build it as you may think. An artist needs to trust their team often with difficult, personal decisions - and the best relationships are built on a mutual trust that takes time to develop. Today, we're meeting with Nashville-based artist manager Claire Sojka to discuss how she builds trust in her working relationships, what others can do to build their own, and the evolving role of the artist manager.

Groundbreaking is a FRNDLY original podcast highlighting corners of the music industry to explore the creative forces moving it forward. Hosted by singer/songwriter/entrepreneur Jake Brewer, new episodes air every Tuesday. You can support the show by subscribing on your favorite platform.
