Getting Gigs

Classified ads – your local newspaper, music papers, internet classifieds, etc. 
Bulletin boards – music stores, record shops, drum shops, talent agencies 
Live bands – networking! Go out, meet, and interact with live groups. This is one of the best ways to learn about who’s looking for who. 
Talent agencies – get to know the people who work in these places. They can sometimes help you find a suitable band or at the very least, pass the word along. 
Union – The Musician’s union is a good place to find certain types of work. Great contacts can be made as well. 
Music studios – Stay in touch with the people behind the scenes at your recording studios. They are recording all your friends and know who’s doing what. 
Jam sessions – Jam sessions are a bit more popular in larger towns, but when you can find them, they are valuable music networking havens! 
LEAVE NO STONE UNTURNED!
