she loves to sing she sing all the time we can never shut her up but we cant afford singing lessons, it seems unless you have money people like her just dont get a chance.

It's a good idea if she can learn how to play guitar too, so she can write her own songs if poss, other than that she will remain a cover song singer. I set up a studio 2 years ago and was looking for a good female singer, all i ended up getting was 10 or 12 mums with daughters attend saying "ooh! listen to her sing Whitney i will always love you" and mostly it was terrible they had no sense of what music is or timing, buy her a guitar and she can learn the basic chords C-D-E-G, This will help with her music development. Also it will help her to find her style. Vocal training CD's are cheap to buy from any music store too, tutors are a money waste. She needs to get her own band together and take a musical journey, then get some gigs, if she is really good the agents will find her, also u can post her demo to a muso website for exposure. Good Luck.

I'm not being harsh but how many 14yr olds out there are good singers!! I bet there are thousands and thousands of kids that want to get into the "music" bussiness! You could get an agent but you do realise this could effect her school work!! I mean shes so young and got so much education left. Yeah she might get a record deal or whatever but how long will that last? A year tops? Then what would she do. Would of wasted her prime years at school just to be another "failied popstar."
Sorry, im not trying to be harsh.

Get her to take part in lots of competitions, you will find them in dancing schools,look in yellow pages and phone, festivals are not just for dancers also singers, this way you can check out other singers same age as your daughter and if she wins some trophies then you will know definitely she is good, then find a singing teacher, get her to do a paper round to pay for lessons,it will be worth it if this is what she really wants,my daughter was a good gymnast and dancer but she did not want it as a career.

Does she write songs too? If not, find a songwriter who writes songs your daughter can relate to and put her 'soul' into.
Search for someone who is producing - someone who takes songs and singers and puts it all together on a recording in a studio. Independent labels will do, but, listen to their music they already produced and ask yourself - Do you like it - does your daughter like it. Does the producer produce the style of music that could fit to your daughter's singing style?
Now the question is do you have the money to make a recording? You could try 3 or 4 songs first as a demo to give to anybody you think could help in your daughter's career. Record labels, local radio stations, anybody that you get a lead to or find in trade information.
See what happens. Follow your instincts about who to trust. Doesn't feel right? Trust that feeling and go somewhere else.
Good luck.

First of all make sure she has a good singing teacher, she still needs to develop her voice. At the beginning you'll have to "manage" her yourself on a small level, try and arrange performances locally. A good manager will not require payment straight way. Make sure you find a reputable one with a good track record.

get a good agent. THey won't charge... um wait yea they'll charge like 10 percent of what your daughter earns.. looks around. A good agent will get your daughter auditions... good luck :)
and don't push her too much. Let her choose. Remember to tell her the ups and downs and pros and cons. And always be there for her no matter what.... and always make her go to school :) homeschooled or watever school should always be important too :) GOodluck !

see how she's doing in a few years time. don't go wasting money on an agent. make sure she gets a good education....teenagers are still prone to growing out of things (however unlikely it may seem right now). make sure she does well at school, and if she still wants to go ahead with it in a few years time then go for it

Enter her in some talent shows. If she really is any good, the agents and managers will come to you.
