    Hey guys! I've teamed up with the Moises App to run a giveaway for a free subscription to the app for one year. All you have to do to enter the giveaway is purchase one of my e-books below:
    brettclur.gumroad.com
    I'll be letting the winners know who they are at the end of February. If you don't know Moises, it's an AI app that removes instrument parts from songs, so it's the perfect tool to use for drum covers, practicing parts, and just doing general music stuff.

    Hey Brett, thanks for this video! I really can find myself in - I guess every single point you made. I think the real deal is to find a very personal way to combine all those things together and find the right people. If you then enjoy what you do and keep learning - maybe not the badest thing! At least we have to try... All the best for you, always a pleasure and inspiration to see your videos! Greetings from Germany, Jochen 🥁❤☮

      Thanks for watching Jochen! yeah it's totally about diversifying so that all your eggs aren't in one basket. I think that's why most people should do in life anyway, but it's more of a do or die thing in the music world haha.

    This was really helpful! I was wondering about this for awhile now and thinking of possibilities and this video really put things into perspective for me. I’m already teaching people how to play drums (for free) and I never thought of it as a potential job. Thanks for the great advice! ✨

    Do you play music for a living? Which one of these methods do you mainly stick with? I’d love to know!

      Great video, Thanks for the ideas! I've been making it work through lots of private teaching, playing local gigs, and some touring...but it's a grind I wouldn't be able to keep up if I didn't LOVE music! I'm still learning how to do it all better as everything is continuously evolving.
      As a music school graduate, I can say the networking and access I had to great teachers and mentors was very helpful. However, I would have been more prepared for starting this journey successfully with some business classes and music production courses as part of the curriculum. As I came to learn through the years, playing drums at a professional level is only one of the essential skills you need to have make it work. For 2024, I'll be aiming to get some basic audio and video production skills together, maybe finally learn notation a software too! Hahaha - yeah, so music keeps me pretty busy.
      Thanks for the great and always inspiring content Brett!

      @@MikeWalshDrumsepic! Yeah if I were forced to go to college, I would opt for exactly that - audio production and business. Audio production is huge with the whole online thing being almost essential these days.
      Epic to hear that you’re making it work! :)

    while this is a good video at insight into how to make money, I feel that in the 'music school' category, there is a part missing. you can go to music school that isn't a conservatory like berklee (for example going to IU or TCU) and still make good money being a music ed teacher working in a school district. in most places, you get paid enough to live by working at the school either being a director, assistant director, or a private lesson teacher.

      100%. I actually had a section about that in the video, but I removed it as my thoughts and statements didn't make complete sense. I'm not entirely sure how it works in the US, but in South Africa, you HAVE to have a degree to get paid a full salary as a teacher at a school. That's why I ended up quitting as a full-time drum teacher. I was never going to get one of those haha. But it's a solid path, and a much more reliable one than most of the things I mentioned, tbh.
