I'm a singer who wants to be discovered
How exactly does one go about being discovered?
I'm just recently learning about some things because I've just decided to follow my dreams in the music business. I need help with all of this and advice.

actually i think you may be right about the whole manager thing because i'm very new to my area of living at present... so i actually contacted a known manager to figure out if he could help me... thank you very much for your advice.... and its also harder for me to join a band here because everyone speaks french..and im english.. however i know french... but not good enough to start singing full time with it lol
Joshua T. Jacobson said:Well you pretty much have your work cut out for you. I would say to join a cover band in your area. Do you have a small computer microphone or a video camera? I hear they have people that scour Youtube and such just to find new artists and sign them. If you really think you need that much help you could try and hire a manager to do these things for you.

Katrina,
Do you have other friends interested in music? Musicians? Anyone who works in a recording studio? The best thing you can do is to start getting involved with other people like yourself in your local area. Head to local open-mic nights and venues that cater to the type of music you enjoy and are interested in singing. Start talking with people. Performers at smaller venues will often be hanging out around the venue afterwards - see if you can have a chat and find out how they got to where they are. That's a good place to start anyway :-)
