It all starts here. This is going to be our little challenge.
I am going to be experimenting on my own self for the next six months. This examination will allow us to see how a musician who starts from the bottom can make his way in the music industry. Fulfilling my eagerness to become a performer and allowing as many people as possible to seek my music. Follow my daily moves, encounters and creations to understand the progression of a solo artist who starts out by only playing for his friends and family, to the preparation of small and medium gigs, the deals and processes involved, with the promotion and hopefully up to the release of an album.
I am not sure of the outcome yet of this. Like all experiments I have some sort of hypothesis, but the conclusion will reveal its self through time.
Everyday, I will be posting new pieces of content here and on various blogs and networks to keep you all updated on my musical journey and experiences. I am very open to new ideas and comments about my music and one of the reasons I am doing this blog is for you, the audience, to give me your advice on my works. I will be asking your help on certain things, for instance if I am stuck on writing a new verse for a song or not sure about a deal I make with a music entrepreneur you will be able to help me out.
This blog could also help you as a musician to avoid the same mistakes I will be making or use the ideas I have for your own benefits.
My name is Neil Erua and this is the beginning of Half A Year.
