  • EP#68: Where to start finding an audience for your music
    Jul 9 2024

    Songwriter are you sitting with NO IDEA of where to begin building an audience for your original music? Finding it tough to get live performance opportunities because pubs and bars only want cover songs? I hear ya 🙌

    In this video, we explore the practicalities for songwriters to grow their fanbase both online and offline. This question was submitted by one of our awesome community members Ruaraidh Wishart (https://littleleaguerebellion.bandcamp.com/)

    ❓ How can we build an audience for our original music without live performance opportunities in pubs and bars? Should we set up our own original music nights in pubs?

    If you want to ask me a question join the Be Radical Make Music Facebook community and submit your voice note to be featured on the podcast.

    Good Luck! Your music deserves to be heard. Keep creating and sharing your art!
