Most musicians grow up believing in the idea of a “big break.”
That one moment where someone important discovers you…
The audition that suddenly changes everything…
The gig that launches your career overnight.
But in my experience, that’s almost never how it actually works.
In this episode of A Drummer’s Guide To…, I answer a question from Jon Raynor about how to catch the eye of higher-level artists and move beyond smaller gigs into bigger opportunities.
I talk about my own journey going from playing with original artists to working professionally, and why the opportunities that changed my career came from relationships and consistency, not a single breakthrough moment.
In this episode I discuss:
• Why most professional music careers don’t start with a big break
• How gigs actually appear in the professional music world
• Why relationships often matter more than talent
• The difference between being a great drummer and being hireable
• Practical things you can do to make sure the right people notice you
If you’ve ever wondered why some musicians seem to move forward while others feel stuck waiting for the right opportunity, this episode is for you.
