hlo everyone i just have a question im a year and a month into guitar. Im like kinda like a super fan boy of john cuz of this it got me to a point i know only mayer songs to play and im currently tryin to move into diff music i was givin my shot at ed sheeran shape of you and it was a pretty good song for me to expand to , same goes to Iris by goo goo dolls so anyone any genre or artist that you find really interesting to expand to

Anyone who relates to this, dont feel like you are the only person who felt all this bad kinda way. I have seen a lot of people who behave so but are just not aware enough that they are such a person with ill behaviour. Even me I'm a person who thinks alot of bad stuff it doesn't mean we are all bad people, we are people who are aware of ourselves through this work or so many other influences which made us realise through this, I've always felt like a really bad person all my life eventhough I am always doing my best to change my behaviour so just dont get depressed after reading this and reflecting upon yourself feel bad but change yourself. These are actually stuffs I wanted to hear thats why im sharing this so you guys are not alone.

If you need any help with your music promotion/content, feel free to DM me — happy to help.

I've been learning about music promotion lately, and i felt like sharing what I know might help some of you guys out

1. Don't make every post “go stream my song”

Lately I've seen a lot of artist posting like stream my song so you can help me out in like 10 different format

If every post is just promoting your latest release, the audience you might eventually get from these might scroll past it.

Give people other reasons to follow you — your personality, your process, your story, your life as a musician, etc.

2. One song can become a LOT of content

You don't have to promote a song only on release day.

You can make content around:

• the story behind the song
• how you wrote it
• a specific lyric
• an acoustic version
• a live performance
• how a particular part was made

Same song, different reasons for someone to care.

3. Let people discover the you I mean you as a person, not just the music

There are thousands of songs competing for someone's attention.

Your personality is something that makes you different. You don't have to become an influencer or force yourself to be entertaining — just let people see the person behind the music.

4. Don't try to be everywhere

You don't need to post on every platform.

Pick the places where your potential listeners actually spend time and learn what works there. It's better to consistently do a couple of things well than burn yourself out trying to maintain everything.

5. Pay attention to what actually gets people interested in your stuff

Views aren't everything.

Look at what gets people commenting, sharing, saving, following you and eventually listening to your music.

If a certain type of content keeps working, experiment with more variations of it.

At the end of the day, promotion isn't just about getting someone to hear one song. It's about giving them enough reasons to become interested in you as an artist.

And again, if you want any help figuring out your music promotion/content, feel free to DM me. Happy to help.

I've been into guitar for almost a year and singing for probably 6 months and I've performed like 3 to 4and it was my 5th time and I thought i did a pretty good job but still didn't get selected but I've also performed solo in a college event for 20 to 30 ppl and they all told it was real nice but yk it feels kinda heavy so here I am

I've been practicing singing pop and rock songs and also I've been playing guitar for a year so I tend to match pitch produced by my guitar with my vocals and I can sing the Lil Liza Jane in 3 to 4 keys that I tried to sing that in but when I start to record without my guitar my pitch accuracy falls so how to improve that and have a sense of pitch internalized.
