It seems as if a new musical artist is born everyday - or every hour.
When websites such as YouTube can give a musician a viral start to their career without having a professional studio or manager, it makes you wonder how important are these old standards of the profession. How important is years of training and a conservatory education? Let's not dwell on those topics, instead....
I want you to find those new artists.
Find a musician who began their career and became either famous or semi-famous through YouTube. Research them. Try to find out all you can. Do they have a website? Who is their fan base and how do they reach out? Do they have a Facebook following or Twitter feed? What kind of music do they perform? Provide an critique of at least 1 song and provide the video or link.
Happy Hunting!
