Becky Chappell: Every Business Is The Music Business

In this episode of the Made it in Music podcast, Full Circle’s own X O’Connor (Grammy/Dove Award Winning Engineer/Producer) and Logan Crockett (VP of Marketing) sits down with Becky Chappell, Director of Music Business Studies at Anderson University in Anderson, Indiana. 


Through her creativity and knack for entrepreneurship, Becky found herself pursuing professorship after receiving her doctorate from Ball State University. She soon was hired on with Anderson University and would cofound and direct the university’s first record label, Orangehaus record label. Chappell is also a first call studio clarinetist for many publishers in Indianapolis, Indiana.


While making an impact in others, the music you create will impact your life as well. Chappell details many different ways to utilize music to be a positive force in other’s lives and to make a difference.


Becky is here to share her incredible story about how she made it in music, and she’s here to help you do the same.

Om Podcasten

Many want to "make it" in the music industry. Few successfully make it in. Even fewer stay in. The goal of this podcast is to help bring some clarity to your path towards a music career. We want to help you not only get in, but stay in. To this end, hosts Seth Mosley and X O'Connor will dig deep with luminaries of the music industry. These are people who have "made it" and today have very notable careers. Many are Grammy winners and work with prominent record labels. Some of our listeners might be on the creative side as a songwriter, artist, producer, or engineer. Others might be on the business side interested in marketing, management, A&R, or radio. The "Made It In Music Podcast" is designed to serve both sides; we are certain you will find a place in this community. How do you get a record deal, get a hit artist to cut your song, build fans, or get on tours? We tackle these questions and more. Before you know it, you will be able to say that you too have "Made It In Music!" Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
