Depends on who gets credit for writing the songs.

Okay, so as an example, let's use the song "Pumped Up Kicks".

Mark Foster is the only credited writer. Are you saying that it's likely that all the royalties from the song went directly to him?

It all depends on how bands choose to divide it up for songwriting credits... for example, REM always gave songwriting credit to all 4 members Berry, Buck, Mills, Stipe... no matter who contributed more...

Other songwriters, or songwriting teams aren't that generous..

Touring is a whole other animal...
