How to Start a Career in Music | w/ Amy Peters Middle Class Musician

Today's guest is Amy Peters, who is a pop singer / songwriter and producer based out of Nashville.
I was in a songwriting bootcamp with her and was blown away but her tracks, so I wanted to bring her on. This conversation is a great look into the mind of someone who is extremely talented, and pretty early in her career. I think it will be really helpful to many of you.
We cover topics like...
the benefits of mastering one piece of gear at a time instead of trying to learn everything at once
how she got her music video funded as an indie artist
the benefits of doing a studio based training program over a college degree in music
the exiting growth of female representation in the music industry
how she broke into nashville without college as a buffer
how growing up with a dad who was a music professional changed her life
her side hustle of doing voice overs for commercials
what it's like listening to music with synesthesia
why she stopped producing (and why she eventually came back)
the difficulty of separating her art from herself
 
and much more!
