Perform in places that take you out of your comfort zone. After you’ve nailed stage performances, branch out and try something new. Try being a guest singer with a local band or singing on the patio at a restaurant. Singing at any sort of venue that is new or different for you will help.
- You may not get paid when you are first starting out, but you will probably be able to set out a tip jar. If you do get paid for performing, consider it a bonus!
- No 2 venues, performances, or even songs will be exactly alike. Give yourself opportunities to experience as many different factors as you can. All of these experiences will work to prepare you to be able to give a successful performance no matter what the circumstances.
