Dovetail’s Philip Creamer Guest Blogs For Planet Stereo Live!
Dovetail frontman Philip Creamer has done a special guest blog for our friends over at Planet Stereo! An excerpt from the article reads:
“As a singer/songwriter living in the teen years of the 21st Century, I often find myself daydreaming of the glory days of rock n’ roll – a time where guys could record great songs, load the band in the van & tour themselves right up to the top of the heap, gold records or a Rolling Stone cover. The model was beautiful, but that model has undergone serious reconstructive surgery, and I hardly recognize her at all.
Enter the Internet. Being a breakout artist today takes a tech-savvy, business know-how, marketing mentality, and rarely any kind of tangible musical genius, inspiration or God-given talent. You gotta keep your social numbers up and maintain an online persona. You gotta sell yourself. Know the trends so you can copy what works & cut what doesn’t. To make great songs & put on great shows doesn’t churn the butter quite like it once did.
So, how can a musical artist achieve success today?”
You can find out the answer to that question here, and don’t forget to pick up your copy of Dovetail’s “Mount Karma” here!
