Visible as a musician: why summer is ideal
There is this strange gap between "I want to be visible" and "I don't want to be too loud". Many female musicians know this. We want to be heard, but not annoying. We want to show our presence, but without imposing ourselves.
Especially in summer, when the attention span on the Internet feels like three seconds, many people think: It's no use anyway. But you know what? That's exactly why it's your time.
Everything slows down a little in August. And that means: your voice can come through more clearly. Without noise. Without competition.
If you're wondering how you can show yourself without bending - here are a few thoughts that might help you:
Speak as you are
Write as you speak. Say what you think. Show yourself the way you feel. People notice when something is genuine. You don't have to be a brand to be heard.Use what's there
You don't need a new single or a fancy video. Maybe you have a picture of your rehearsal room. Or a thought you want to share. It's about connection, not perfection.You are not too much - you are visible
It is not arrogant to talk about yourself. It is courageous. And it helps others to be bold too. When you show yourself, you make room - also for other women in the music industry.
Summer is not empty. It is open. And maybe now is the right time to show yourself - not because you "have to", but because you can.
If you need ideas on how to make yourself visible without losing yourself, please get in touch. I will support you in finding your very own path.
