I am only 14 but this summer I want to be a singer and go to different places to perform for $. Do you have any tips or advice I can have?

I'm 17 yrs old. I agree that you should find different ways to promote your talent. At school, you could start or partake in a talent show.Do you go to school with anyone in a band?

I would recommend talking to them about what they do to get heard. Don't take this the wrong way, but there are a few bars in my town that get teens to perform weekly/monthly. Get in contact with similar places and even restaurants/coffee houses and sing your heart out.

I would also talk to the teacher(s) involved with the school orchestra. They can offer some valuable information. The orchestra in my school often performs at churches and other gathering places.

If you come across any place that might need a singer, don't be afraid to ask. The worst-case scenario is a 'no thanks', but keep on looking. You will eventually get recognized.

If you want to make money, you'll have to build a portfolio. Cut your own album, promote yourself online and build relationships with local clubs, cafes, coffee shops that book singers. The best thing you can do right now is perform as often as you can.

Find every open mic in your area and perform as much as possible. The money will come over time.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
