We had the good fortune of connecting with Sonnet Simmons and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Sonnet, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
I believe the most important factor behind the success of our brand is our motivation to be of service. We come from a service mindset in everything we do and this has attracted amazing people to our private membership. We are always looking for new ways to help support indie artists in the music industry, we focus on lifting each other up, and advocate for a mindset of possibility and taking action, with all of our clients.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?

Our company is called 2Indie, started by myself Sonnet Simmons and John Clinebell and together we have built a robust and beautiful online global community of music makers around the world. We help independent music makers find sync agencies to represent their music and pitch it to licensing opportunities in TV, film, ad, etc.

We are both independent music artists and wanted to create a company that would support other indie music makers with both a welcoming support group of like-minded members and also lots of real opportunities to connect and progress with industry professionals.

We help indie artists find a roadmap and accountability for their success in the music industry and in music licensing to be specific.

Members of our private community, Licensing Basecamp, are signing their songs each month to sync agencies and getting placements in TV shows, commercials, and films.

The music industry doesn’t have to feel like a lonely and desperate land to traverse when you’ve got this amazing community to help you connect all the dots.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Hands down a shoutout goes to Cathy Heller, one of our biggest mentors in life and business to this day. Cathy gave us our start on the industry side of music licensing while running her sync agency Catch The Moon Music and coaching her students. She inspired us to take massive, clear, and inspired action in our music careers. She continues to inspire us with her podcast, The Cathy Heller Podcast, and mentorship. I am forever grateful for the wisdom she shares with this world and with us.
