“‘What do producers actually do, how do I know if I need one, how do I pay one, how do they work with you, how do I find one – and can I just be a self-producing artist and forget about all these questions?’

Many artists are told they need a producer, or perhaps have only a vague sense of how working with a producer might benefit them.
