DAZZ - Singer/Songwriter of The Year - Los Angeles Music Awards

Been awhile but here it is… The Music Biz Buzz Episode #06 – Killer Stage Presence.

I really can’t stress how important this is for musicians in the industry, both veteran and up and coming bands, to grasp and make their own…

Stage presence is an intangible piece of the performance puzzle that no act can do without. If you’re lacking in this department than at times it won’t really matter how great your music is… especially if you’re boring to watch. Why would I spend money a show that puts me to sleep? I’d rather just buy the album.

The problem with this is that most fans get to know and you love you based on your stage performance. That’s what makes them tell their friends all about you…

Join me as I dig into the importance of presenting yourself properly to your existing and potential fan base. Plus… listen in as I talk with the winner of the 18th Annual Los Angeles Singer/Songwriter award, DAZZ.

Awesome lady delivering awesome music and an outstanding live stage presence… DAZZ has music business brains to match her electrifying musical sound… don’t miss it!

I’m back and comin’ at cha with a very insightful and helpful bit of info you can put into action immediately and for your sake I hope you do. If you commit this to your daily regimen there’s no way you can fail… and that’s the point right! Success in the industry.

Of course we all know it’s really not that simple. There’s a ton of work to be done in the trenches and that’s probably the number one reason that over 95% of today’s musicians don’t find the success they dream of. Thinking that this music thing is a breeze will absolutely kill you in this business.

Plus I’ve dropped in a very cool interview I had with Sick Tricks a very cool cat hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. So be sure to check what he has to say about finding success in the independent Hip Hop world and check out some of the music tracks he shared with us.

Anyway have a listen and feed on the suggestions I’ve got lined up for you this week, hit me up with your comments and let me know how you feel and what’s good in your career.

Talk soon,

Duss.

This week I discuss the benefits of identifying and aligning yourself with the right team. Having the right team working with and for you is essential to your musical success. Are you taking care of your team? Do you have a team?

These are some of the questions you need to be asking yourself if you want to take your music career beyond the local club scene. Making business contacts and street teams will ultimately push your career forward.

Get out there, identify who your most influential alliances are (or might be) and work the network. Once you’ve reached out and touched everyone… do it again! Remember… consistency and doing what others won’t breeds success!

To your success,

Duss Rodgers
