Description

Ever feel like you're spinning your wheels playing gig after gig, but not seeing your music career progress? You’re not alone! Join me, Phil McDonald, as I share personal nuggets from my experience on why quality trumps quantity when it comes to gigging. I’ll take you through the potential pitfalls of packing in too many low-key gigs and how they might be stunting your growth as an artist. And hey, don’t miss the excellent track from Acid Ferry, 'The Great Awakening', that we'll get into. Plus, I’ll show you how you can have your music featured on our podcast.

Now, you’ve got your quality gigs lined up, but how do you get noticed? Well, let's talk about that! We discuss the power of having your own digital real estate (yes, we mean a website) and why it's essential to keep a vibrant and engaging social media presence. Let me walk you through the art of professionally reaching out to venues and promoters and the right way to secure better gigs. And remember, your fan base is your ticket to better venues and bigger gigs. So, stick around as we unravel ways to build and nurture your following. And guess what? Next week, we're bringing in a special guest for an incisive interview. Can't wait to see you then!
