In this episode of the Cover Band Confidential Podcast, we're diving into the myths of being a musician that we've learned from hard experience are UNTRUE! We share updates on our recent gigs, discuss our latest gear acquisitions, and then tackle the main topic: debunking common myths musicians might believe. We discuss everything from the importance of playing what you love, the role of talent versus hard work, the actual impact of gear on performance, the overlap between musicians and entertainers, and the debate on whether you need to sound just like the recording. This episode is a blend of our personal insights and professional experiences, aimed at shedding light on the realities versus the expectations of being a musician today.
