Maria Schneider (Armin Faber)Caught in the Net
There is no shortage of artists who have horror stories from working with record labels. Among them is Maria Schneider, a prize-winning composer and arranger in jazz, who made three discs for a label that sold a respectable 20,000 copies but of which she didn't make a dime from. So she turned to a company called ArtistShare. Rather than go through labels, distributors and retailers, ArtistShare sells discs over the Web and turns over all the proceeds (minus a small fee) to the artist. Guest host Rick Karr speaks with Schneider about her experiences making her first disc for the company. We’re also joined by Brian Camelio, a 38-year-old musician and computer programmer, who started ArtistShare after he heard stories from too many friends frustrating experiences with record labels.
