Hi there! At Careers in Music, we always suggest immersing yourself in your local community, meeting other musicians and asking for their advice on venues that might book you or radio stations that play local music.
However, if you’re too young to go to concerts or if you live somewhere that doesn’t have a big music scene, the internet is a great option for building a fanbase! Artists like Yuna and Clairo got their start through posting their songs online on social media and video sites.
By recording and posting music online, you have access to the whole world, even when you’re doing most of your performances from the comfort of your own room.
