Let me begin by saying that I love this community so much. I'm elated to finally be settled down somewhere so I can continue to participate, collaborate, and communicate with you all.
As the title suggests, I want to be a studio musician (nb4 "you'll never make enough money, it's a hard gig, etc.). I love Music. If we don't do what we love in this life, we're wasting our time.
From those with experience in the field, what can I do to strengthen my chances?
I've already sent out some emails with recordings of myself to 16 studios in Portland.
I'm open to any and all suggestions.
Peace
