FULL EPISODE: 10 Things you're doing WRONG as a bandleader

In this episode,, Dan and I get a little uncomfortable—in a good way. We break down 10 leadership mistakes band leaders are making without even realizing it, and yeah… we’ve both been guilty of more than a few of them. We talk about why avoiding hard conversations doesn’t “keep the peace,” how assuming everyone in your band wants the same thing is a recipe for resentment, and why over-explaining decisions can quietly undermine your leadership. We also dig into the trap of doing everything yourself, protecting the wrong people, and forgetting that—like it or not—a band is also a product, not just a group of friends hanging out. This isn’t theory. It’s all stuff we’ve lived through: blown gigs, awkward conversations we should’ve had sooner, and lessons learned the hard way. If you’re running a band (or thinking about it), this episode is part reality check, part therapy session, and part “ouch… I needed that.” MaestroDMX (10% off discount link): https://maestrodmx.com/discount/DISCO...
