How to Start a Career in Music | w/ Amy Peters

Middle Class Musician

Today's guest is Amy Peters, who is a pop singer / songwriter and producer based out of Nashville.

I was in a songwriting bootcamp with her and was blown away but her tracks, so I wanted to bring her on. This conversation is a great look into the mind of someone who is extremely talented, and pretty early in her career. I think it will be really helpful to many of you.

We cover topics like...

• the benefits of mastering one piece of gear at a time instead of trying to learn everything at once

• how she got her music video funded as an indie artist

• the benefits of doing a studio based training program over a college degree in music

• the exiting growth of female representation in the music industry

• how she broke into nashville without college as a buffer

• how growing up with a dad who was a music professional changed her life

• her side hustle of doing voice overs for commercials

• what it's like listening to music with synesthesia

• why she stopped producing (and why she eventually came back)

• the difficulty of separating her art from herself

and much more!
