Inside the Playbook: Dan Gonzalez on Why Most Artists Don’t Understand Their Contracts

16 min•24 augusti 2025

From Canadian grant writing to closing music business deals.

In this clip of The Manager’s Playbook, I sit down with Dan Gonzalez who has navigated both worlds, and now helps artists protect their rights and grow sustainable careers. We discuss why some artists land grants while others don’t, how to simplify overly complex contracts, and the biggest pitfalls hiding in traditional label agreements.

The conversation also covers advances, independent capital, protecting intellectual property, and why every artist should be thinking like a CFO.

Whether you’re just starting out or managing a global career, this episode offers clear strategies to protect your music, negotiate smarter, and build for the long game.

A conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
