How do you become a successful independent recording artist? When do you need a manager and how do you find the right one? How do you know if you’re getting good advice? This week’s guest Aubrey Logan speaks candidly about these questions we all have as singers and artists. She also gives her healthy perspective on rejection, touring as an indie artist, and how she’s spending her time during quarantine.
MENTIONS:
SINGING LESSONS:
- You have to take rejection and say what is in my control now.
- You don’t need a manager until you find one that you love.
- The things about your work that you love doing are the things that only you can do. When you can, delegate what you hate to someone else.
- If you don’t want to be an artist find out now. If there is another profession that you might enjoy and that might give you fulfillment do it.
- What you value you keep.
- There comes a time when you have to get off social media and stop looking at everybody else and just start. You have to just begin and realize that everything you’re seeing on social media is only the best of what they’ve come up with and that behind all of that is a lot of hard work and a lot of trial and error.
- Look at what you like as a goal, but then stop looking at it for a minute, put your blinders on, and just start and then learn from what you’re starting to do.
- If you’re expecting everything to be perfect you’re never going to get anything done.
- You have something that somebody’s gonna like, play to them and don’t worry about the others.
