On this episode of The Indie Build we have Jeremy Schmetterer — a songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist out of LA who’s been in the room on Grammy nominated records and Billboard charting projects.
We get into the reality of building a catalog for other people, why he turned down a $100K publishing deal, and the money he found from places he never expected.
