As independent artists, we know how difficult it is to earn money from streaming, and taxes make it even tougher. When you distribute your music through U.S.-based companies like DistroKid, TuneCore, or CD Baby, a portion of your royalties often gets withheld due to U.S. tax laws. For many artists outside the U.S., this means losing money before it even hits your account.
The reality is that this system serves U.S. tax interests, not musicians around the world. Unless you file extra tax forms or claim treaty benefits, you end up paying more than necessary. That’s why distributing with a UK company can sometimes be the smarter choice; it helps you avoid unwanted U.S. withholding and keeps more of your earnings.
In the end, music should reward creators instead of being consumed by complex tax systems. Understanding these rules is one of the most important steps artists can take to protect their income and build a lasting music career.
