Do This Before Moving To Nashville.

[@Last_one_before_I_go]

Even if you don't plan on doing Nashville, all of this advice works just for getting your life in order.

[@NickyV]

Appreciate you checking the video out.

[@sweetsally1313]

I just said the same thing & then I saw your comment. Yes, I agree!

[@MichaelLewisMusic]

Every year we'd watch the Spring migration of hundreds (thousands?) of new musicians, showing up in hopes of making their mark and every Fall there would be a massive migration of musicians leaving town, deciding it wasn't for them. Being an independent musician is not for the faint of heart. You're in essence starting your own business. So many of your tips are spot on for how to prepare to do that. The competition is incredibly stiff and you need to be extremely talented, versatile, adaptable and great to get along with. And it will be a reality check for a lot of people who aren't as good or even as charming as they thought they were. A lot of Nashville musicians are super cool because they're really good at self-evaluation and making the adjustment on how to be both a better musician and a better person. It will also humble you because no matter how good you are, there's always someone better than you and you have to learn to cope with that and not be discouraged. Just do the best you can do, be the best version of yourself you can be and if that's really what you're supposed to do in life, it will come together for you. Thanks for sharing these great tips!

[@NickyV]

This is a fantastic comment. Absolutely spot on and thank you for sharing! Appreciate you checking the video out.

“Don’t have your name in the neck.” was a personal attack. My two Sadowskys and three Fenders laughed audibly at my two Ritters. As always, full of wisdom and spot-on.

[@NickyV]

Blahahahaha I didn’t know they had your name in the neck. I thought they had Ritter in the neck lol. Was more so talking about the big block mother of toilet seat letters in the fretboard. You get a pass because you are an actual rockstar

[@sweetsally1313]

I actually laughed at that comment too. All I could see were those 80's BC Rich guitars with all the points & sharp edges. They were usually florescent just like my thumbnail. Ha...

[@johntiger5]

My great uncle moved to Nashville in the 50's from the Northeast. I went down there with my wife the 2nd year we were married in the mid 80's. Before going to Printer's Alley and Ryman Auditorium (O.G. Grand Ole Opry). We went to visit my grand uncle for lunch. He had his friend come over who told us he was the Chief of Police, and was going to give us a ride around town in his police car after lunch. I am thinking to myself, this is going to be like riding around with Andy of Mayberry. Wow, we were both surprised how Nashville was a real City. Definetly do your homework. Tho Nashville was not the musical mecca and epic center it is today. It certainly was an eye opener, as well as an ear opener.

[@NickyV]

That’s a cool story! Thank you for sharing and checking the video out. I’ve heard it’s changed a lot, most complain about it but I have nothing but great things to say about Nashville. The city and the people here have been great to me.

Im 45 and making the move ..I really wanna stay busy playing Broadway for a Living so I know thats my ultimate Goal .

I keep coming back to your channel...I'm not even a country player per se although I grew up with country music and my Sister and B in Law played with big Canadian acts. I come back because I love to hear you talk about what it takes do be a pro in the business and make a real living. I have to say my hat's off to players trying to even just make a solid living in the music business. I only ever played in weekend bar and college bands and just for fun...the pay barely covered Beer and gas money...let alone a new set of strings once in a while. All you players out there you have my utmost respect.

I was lucky enough to have a successful producer hip me to work in Nashville back in the 90’s, there was no social networking back then, I learned real quick you had to be an excellent reader, 6 figures saved up and not have any dependents, I was trying to commute from Chattanooga but that wasn’t the way to do it, good luck to all with their dreams and endeavors, remember to have lots of cash saved up, great videos and kudos to you young people trying to play music for a living

[@vfam5860]

Cool - nice to listen, lots of practical advice for some of us who might feel like we're stuck as lazy wanna be people that just keep watching youtube vids and never really get around to actually doing all of the amazing and practical things you recommend. Thanks for capturing so much good stuff in a short video. Maybe do a video on your perspective of the Nashville 'Christian' music 'circus', the way you see it - that would be interesting to check out. We moved from CT to TN (rural, NW TN) about 2.5 yrs ago and I work from home - non musical work, but I play trumpet for fun and I love it, but I can't read charts that good, ha ha - so I'm screwed when it comes to being a real trumpet player, but who cares, I'm enjoying life and my kids like listening to me play. Have a great day and keep up the good work, Nicky V.

[@NickyV]

[@Life101-lm2ut]

If folks don’t listen to anything you’ve said before, they better listen to this video. You’re a smart guy moving here with 6-9 months income . That takes a ton of stress off. Planning and preparation is half the battle. I like your advice about learning tons of songs before you move. Many have a timeline goal as well if they’re young. Say if I haven’t made it by early 30’s, get a career job and do music on the side so one could start a family and a future. The only thing worse than being a broke young musician is being a broke old musician. Nashville hasn’t been as kind to elderly musicians as hot young ones.

The thing that surprised me about some of the Broadway bands was that they had their phones mounted to the mic stand. They were staring at the phone reading the chord charts.

Good advice for self employed people wheither they are musicians or in any other line of self employed line of work. If you get paid cash deposit the money in a checking account.

[@NickyV]

I’m honestly don’t have much experience on that side of it. I know people do both juggling a day job and music if they can find something with flexible hours that doesn’t wear them out too much. I’m not sure on this but DoorDash/Uber and things like that might be a good way to pay the bills and work your own hours.

[@robertstorrow3990]

Really enjoy your videos. Thank you for posting. Please tell me what app do you use to download songs to learn I currently study with a well-known guitarist, but we don’t work on songs. I don’t know many covers and seem to have a hard time learning them as I’ve been working on the second half of the guitar solo for sweet child of mine for a while now Learning the chords to a song is obviously much easier than learning all the solos and melodies. So much to remember, how do you do it?

[@NickyV]

I just use the KZbin slowdowner if something is too quick for me to catch by ear. Now there’s all kinds of AI that can take a song and remove the guitar parts so you can learn the isolated parts and jam in the mix without them as well. Logic now has that feature on their most recent update

[@sweetsally1313]

I'm assuming you were suggested because I watch Tim's channel. Overall, this is great advice in general for any move & employment but especially for Nashville. I've got to ask a question. I watch a livestream of a local Nashville resident that walks bar to bar on Broadway. He streams so all of us that don't live in Nashville can watch the bands, people, etc. One thing that I noticed almost immediately was the choice of songs that band's choose to add to their set list. How did this happen & why those songs? I hear the same songs over & over again. I've named it the "Standard Broadway Setlist". Are these songs currently popular with the college crowd? Was this decided by the bar owners because it's the same in every bar except for AJ's or an older bar. I heard "Don't Stop Believing" the first time around but here comes round two. Ha... I know you know what I'm referring to. I would love some insight into this. Thank you, new sub!

[@NickyV]

Man I’m honestly not the most well versed in Broadway but I would guess that it’s a mixture of request driven and songs that tend to get tips since that’s the primary focus for the players down there. My favorite place to take family and friends when they are in town and want to check Broadway out would be Roberts Western World. Amazing musicianship and traditional country…not the typical standards.

There’s definitely a rock and indie scene here…I’m not that tied up in it so I don’t have much info other than ‘it exist’ haha. If you want to play on records Nashville is kind of where people need to be. You can do it at home, I play on 50-60 tracks a month at my house and one or two tracking sessions a week at different studios. For the singers and songwriters, being here will only make you better and step up your game. Helps with co-writes as well if you want to shoot for a publishing deal but like anything…for some it might make more sense to try doing it all remotely without the overhead of Nashville

I visited Nashville about 5 years ago. As a drummer I couldn’t believe the number of female drummers there were. They totally had their chops together. The other thing was, is that most if not all could sing lead and/or do harmonies. That is important no matter what sex you are, you are bringing something else to the table. This will help you get gigs. So work on developing your voice. If your are at multi talented musician with other instruments you’ll be valuable. But really the bottom line is that you have to know your stuff and be better than good at what you do. The talent calibre is off the charts there.

Fantastic advice! Thanks for sharing and checking out the video!

[@ZappaIrl]

"You don't have a boss telling you what to do"... not totally accurate if you're a sideman in someones band, or a hired hand in a recording session. Might be nice to think you don't have a boss, and he's just your friend or whatever... but you'll do whatever he says. Unless you're the star... you're gonna have to serve somebody.

It’s still a service industry for sure but there’s a difference between being an employee for a company and a private contractor/gig work on the studio side of things. If you are on a salary with an artist you are definitely and employee, the biggest reason I transitioned off the road.

Why not Vox flavored amp? Just as versatile IMO and a staple in country just as much as any Fender amp IMO.

[@NickyV]

This is pure opinion but a vox is a little more colored than a fender to my ears. It’s just a sound people are more familiar with and every front of house guy I’ve ever worked with typically has to work harder to get a vox to sit right in the front of house mix for some reason. I put voxs on records every day but usually use it as a secondary texture or if I need some cut in the mix.
