Songwriters Hall of Fame Garth Brooks – HuffPost 12.30.11

Mike Ragogna: What is your advice to new artists?

Garth Brooks: Well, support your songwriter for sure, and bust your ass whenever you can. For new artists, it’s hard to say. Songwriters these days are finding new ways to make their money and stay above water. It used to all depend on record sales, and we’re fighting to get that back, for sure.
