Remembering the little guy
I’m frustrated when I notice a mid-sized level acts neglect to mention their local openers for their concerts.
So you need the extra ticket sales, but you can’t share a tweet, a link on your website, a mention in your newsletter that a local act is opening the show?
I just noticed this for one of my Michigan friend’s show this month, who is probably going to outdraw the headlining act. I know, I know. It comes with the territory of being undiscovered. It’s known as paying your dues.
But it’s also a reminder that sometimes it’s more fruitful strategy for us undiscovered artists to work with other undiscovered artists!

PS: I’m playing a cool concert in West Michigan with Frances Luke Accord, New Years Day!
