Hi guys, firstly let me say I am relatively new to the music industry, but not to songwriting.
So I need some guidance and any help you can give would be so appreciated! This website is awesome.
Ok so I've written some great demos I want to send to music publishers, in the hope of pitching them to artists. I am a singer too but stylistically they are not suited to me, but are very current.
In this situation - do you send private Soundcloud links?
I ask because surely if the song is public, it would put off an artist choosing it seeing as they are so hot in keeping things secret before they release their music...?
Or should I bang up everything publicly to show the world how diverse my songwriting actually is? Do I need a big social media presence and following as simply a songwriter these days, or does it not matter as much?
Let me know your thoughts on what you think is best. Thank you!
