4 Benefits That Come From Focusing On What You LOVE In Music
The non-musical world often thinks that making and performing music is always fun, easy, and instantly gratifying. But serious musicians know that this is only one part of their story.
Loading your equipment out of a venue you just played after a show that no one attended isn’t fulfilling. Pitching your new album to a long list of email contacts and never hearing back isn’t fun. And yet both these examples are things independent musicians have to do to find audiences for their music. You can think of it as “paying your dues,” but the kicker is that some artists never manage to move past the stage of trying to get the world to notice their music, even if their songs are great. That’s a hard truth about pursuing music. One of the only sure things you’ll have in music is your ability to enjoy what you do as a musician, whether it’s getting on stage or writing music. But for as important as this connection is in music, we often neglect it by acting in certain ways that we think we need to find success.
