Welcome to Two Story Media! My name is Jon, and my goal with this channel is to help indie musicians learn how to build meaningful community around their artistry. To that end, the plan is to try stuff and tell you what works. I've been running twostorymelody.com (a music blog) since 2016ish. Over that time, we've interviewed hundreds of artists and written thousands of reviews. I've been running twostorymedia.com (a music marketing agency) since 2018ish. We started out with a focus on PR (press campaigns), and have since branched out into almost everything – paid ads, social media, Spotify promotion, those wavy-arms guys you see in front of gas stations. Kidding about the wavy-arms guys. We've worked with major-label acts with multiple millions of streams, seen our indie clients get on their first "Fresh Finds" playlists, and done consulting with acts that are just starting out. Wherever you are on the journey, here's wishing you good luck! Now get out there and make music.

YouTube, with the door locked.

Aegis plays a clean stream instead of YouTube's player, so pre-roll ads, trackers, and fingerprinting never ride along. Drop Shields any time if you want the official player back.
