I talked with Jean Cook last October after hearing her speak on WNYC’s SoundCheck, hosted by John Schaefer. They discussed her work researching artist revenue streams with the Future of Music Coalition. While most information widely available on making money as a musician largely focuses on or caters to indie rock bands, this discussion intrigued me because it seemed to embrace all professional and semi-professional musicians, regardless of genre or style.  So I contacted Jean Cook to ask her a few more questions about it and her other musical activities.
