Listen "Ep.5 – If You Wanna Be Somebody…"
Episode Synopsis
Building Your Audience As A Cellist
Hey hey, welcome back to another episode of Cosmicgirlie Cello Chronicles! Today we are diving straight in with a Sister Act classic: If you wanna be somebody, if you wanna go somewhere, you better wake up and pay attention! (If you know, you know! 😉)
So, let’s talk about showing up. People often ask me, Jay, how do you get your bookings? How did you land the Queen Charlotte gig? How did you get in with the BBC? And my answer is always the same: I show up.
Showing up doesn’t just mean existing - it means being visible. It means making sure people know who you are, what you do, and where to find you. Whether it’s social media, a website, a newsletter, or live performances, it’s about putting yourself out there in a way that makes you easy to find and easy to book.
In this episode, I’m breaking down:
Why being seen is everything when it comes to booking gigs 🎻
The importance of having multiple touchpoints (socials, website, emails - you need them ALL!)
How even agents and TV shows find me on social media
The mindset shift you need if you’re feeling “too nervous” to post
Why showing up regularly is the best confidence-building tool you have
If you’re a cellist (or any kind of creative) struggling to get gigs, this one’s for you. You don’t need to keep trying to go viral. You don’t need fancy gimmicks. You just need to show up and share your work consistently. Your audience is out there - they just need to see you.
🎧 Press play, let’s get into it... And thanks for listening!
