When creative collaborations reveal hidden economic pressures

My bandmates and I are trying to make it in music but some of us can afford to turn down day jobs and tour while others need steady income to survive, and it's creating tension about how serious we are about 'making it.' We love playing together but the economic realities are forcing us to make decisions about the band that feel like they're really about class.

More people experience this than they realize.
