“it’s really now or never.”

have faced along the way in your music career?

Natasha Blaine: I feel like the biggest lesson I’ve learned is that the only way to ensure failure is to not try. And I know that kind of ties back to what I was saying before, but it’s really true with music, because putting music out there is very scary. I’m not going to lie about that. My music is a huge part of me, and the Internet can be a cruel place, but I know that inaction and not putting music out due to insecurity is the biggest way to predict failure. I just have to do it. Spotlight on Business: What has been your biggest surprise in your professional journey so far? Natasha Blaine: This might sound obvious, but my biggest surprise is that a music career is really hard to sustain. Everybody told me that when I started, but sometimes you kind of have to go through it yourself just to see how hard it is. Because it doesn’t really matter how good you are at guitar, it doesn’t matter how great of a writer you are, or how talented a singer you are, there are so many uncontrollable factors.
