Good advice
Scott, I have five characters called The Heartbeats & Mr. Grungebeat. These health iconic characters have performed before thousands of children here in Pensacola, Florida and we now have a television show shown locally. We have completed three dvds and are now up for the prestigious beacon award. We have sent First Lady Michelle Obama a Heartbeat packet to ask her if we can perform for some children in Washington, DC. Can you help us to find a booking agent??
My problem with this advice is this: Most bands do not have a problem getting in their van and driving hours away from their hometown and performing but the problem is most clubs will not book a band unless they’re bringing in at least 25 people or more. How can you possibly bring 25 or more people to a club that’s 5 hours away from your hometown??? That’s why most bands/ artists are looking for booking agents. Another reason is because they want to spend all their energy writing great songs
Mimi likes. Look how stone faced and clear he is. Good advice. Who is this guy?
Yep, I’m just beginning but I see it’s work! Love it though and will continue to build my fan base and keep recording etc…good advice
