TOPICS

  • Coordinate: Choreography and costumes or even a lighting rig aren’t necessary to present a strong visual identity.
  • Camaraderie & Chemistry: While they should NEVER tell it during a show, all bands have a story. An artist should create short running jokes based on his history and help his audiences see his (or the band’s) personalities. Remember, chemistry is part of a great show!
  • Be Creative: Re-imagining your own songs in new and interesting way is a great start to giving your audience an experience.
  • Covers: Covers are a great way to bring a new element to original music. Even just a well-placed chorus of a beloved classic into an
    original song is a great way to help an audiences feel more familiar with an artist’s show.
  • Coach: Are audiences used to seeing the artist in a bar? At a standing concert venue? Or at a seated theater? Remember that as
    formats change, an audience isn’t always sure of the rules. Help them! If you want them to stand and dance, encourage them to do so.
  • Click Track: Not just a great thing to get into the habit of using during practice, a well-programmed click track will also help maintain a show’s flow and keep the dead air between songs to a minimum.
