For electronic & EDM artists

Business management built for electronic artists.

You didn't get into music to chase receipts, track royalties, or plan travel. You got into it to create. I handle the business side: bookkeeping, royalties, tours, and taxes, so you can stay on the music.

Your music is taking off. So why does the money feel out of control?

Being an artist today means wearing too many hats. One minute you're finishing a track, the next you're filming a TikTok, prepping your set, then racing to catch a flight to the show. Tracking expenses or living in a spreadsheet is the last thing you've got time for.

But the business side doesn't go away. It piles up in the background, and the longer it sits, the more it quietly costs you.

"I'm finally making real money, and I have no clue where it's all going.
"My royalties are spread across five platforms, and I know I'm leaving money behind.
"I find out what I owe in taxes when it's already too late to plan for it.
Why Pillar

What you actually get.

Here's what changes once the money side is finally handled.

Always know where you stand

A clear picture of what's coming in, what's going out, and what's actually yours. Every month, no guessing.

Stop leaving money behind

Every royalty stream tracked and collected, across every platform and distributor, so you stop missing what you're owed.

More time for music

You were never going to sit down and do the books, and you shouldn't have to. I handle all of it in the background so it's done right and off your mind.

Rende, founder of Pillar

A partner who's actually been there.

Work with Pillar and you work with me directly: someone who's lived what you're going through.

I've spent 15 years in music, touring, releasing my own tunes, and sound engineering. Alongside that, I consulted for some of the biggest brands in the world on commercial planning, forecasting, and managing the books. So I know both sides: the artist's life and the business behind it. Now I help rising artists skip the burnout by handling the business side, so they can stay focused on the music.

Services

Everything the business side throws at you, handled.

I handle the full business side, built around how electronic artists actually earn: streams, shows, sync, and merch.

Bookkeeping

Categorized and reconciled every month, from streams to shows to merch, so your books are clean, current, and something you can actually read.

Royalty tracking

Every label you've released on, plus your distributor and sync, tracked down and reconciled, so the royalties scattered across all of them actually make it to you.

Tour planning & budgeting

Flights, hotels, crew, and fees mapped out before you commit, so you know what you'll actually take home from a run, not just what it pays on paper.

Cash-flow management

See what's coming in and going out week to week, plus help chasing down the invoices and payments you're still owed.

Tax coordination

1099s and quarterly estimates handled directly, returns coordinated with a CPA, including the multi-state mess that comes with touring.

Entity & compliance

LLC setup, registered agent, and annual filings, so your foundation is solid and you're never caught off guard.

How it works

Getting started is simple.

No long onboarding, no jargon. Three steps and the business side is off your plate.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Do you do my taxes?

I handle your 1099s and quarterly estimates directly, and work hand-in-hand with a CPA on your returns, so nothing slips, multi-state touring income gets filed right, and you're never scrambling in April.

Why not just hire a bookkeeper?

A bookkeeper records the past. I manage the business: royalties, tours, cash flow, and the decisions in between. And I've actually lived the artist's side of it.

Why you and not a bigger firm?

Bigger firms are built for volume, so you're one of hundreds of accounts and rarely talk to anyone senior. With Pillar you work directly with me every month: someone who's toured, released music, and knows exactly how electronic artists earn and where money slips. You get focused, senior attention from someone who actually speaks your world.

Is there a contract?

Month-to-month after a 3-month initial commitment, so we both have room to build something real.

Who is Pillar for?

Electronic and EDM artists who are touring, releasing regularly, or starting to see real royalty and sponsorship money, and who'd rather make music than manage spreadsheets.
