If you’re starting a band in 2026, this video could save you months — maybe years — of wasted momentum. Too many bands rush to release music before they’re ready, burn their first impression, and then wonder why nothing sticks. In this video, I break down exactly what I’d do if I were starting a band from scratch in 2026 — the real order of operations, based on what I’m actively doing right now with a brand-new band.
