Make a music video for one of your catchier songs. Making a low-budget video to put on your MySpace or YouTube page can get your music noticed quickly. Make your video inexpensively, and add something to the content that will catch people's attention, such as a funny story line or an interesting dance. Attach popular keywords to the video so people looking for other music will stumble upon your work.
Get a local celebrity to endorse your music. Speak with radio DJs and celebrities in your area, and ask them to listen to your music. If they like it, they may allow you to say so on your blog or music page for others to see. Celebrity endorsements can catch the attention of many who are in the position to help you with your music career.
Obtain some professional help for your music. Hire a public relations firm that has a track record in the music industry. They can get your music out to important people and help create a network to get you to the next level. Public relations firms often have networking capabilities that average bands cannot create. These relationships are built over years and can be very helpful to up-and-coming musicians and artists.
Secure a spot on television on a local music show or have your music in a commercial. Submit your music to local businesses looking to add music to their ads. This can create a buzz and interest in your music, both on a professional business level and a local audience level. Post bulletins and let people know that they may have heard your song on a commercial in your area.
Do something that is newsworthy. Sometimes outrageous behavior is rewarded with popularity. Try crashing a political party or making edgy statements to the press. News companies are always looking for something interesting to report on, so if you do something out of the ordinary in your local area, you just may get the attention you wish for for your music.
