Here's my situation. I have a great singing and speaking voice. I know this and that's not the problem. My problem is that I've always wanted to do advertising jingles. Singing, writing, all of the above. It's my passion. Yah, I'm a commercial junkie. I live in Nashville TN which you think would be the easiest place in the world to obtain work, however, it's exactly the opposite. In this city you either have to fork out a lot of money to an agent to scare up work for you (and usually pay his prices to create a demo) or "know someone". I don't know anyone in the business and I'm a mother of a 1 year old from a one-income family. I don't have the luxury of time to knock on doors on Music Row or the money to give to an agent. I've been trying for 4 years now to get ANYONE to accept a demo from me. Is there another way to break into this industry? Even voiceover work would be thrilling! I know if my demo was heard I'd get some work.
