Your video made me feel happier and motivated about my project. It actually changed my mood since these last couple of days have been kinda depressing. Thanks Wendy, like for reals, thanks!
This was really helpful. I'm in the process of recording and mastering my first single I produced by MYSELF!! gonna pitch it and hopefully it lands on an editorial playlist!! Thanks for the info and your encouraging words. We indie artists got to stick together :)
Hi Wendy. I recently got on a Spotify Editorial playlist by using your playlist pitch as inspiration! Thank you so much for the great advice you give on your channel!
Very good info on explaining that the editors review on fridays and release should be submitted well in advance, thank you a ton! and also you are absolutly BEATUIFUL and have a very sweet voice good luck in your journey!
You're spreading the wisdom and the kind words but you are loved too. Happy new year and may this year be amazing then ever. I will follow you on Spotify and wait for your new songs. Good luck and stay safe 🌟
Hey Wendy, thanks for making this! I’ve been looking for some real advice for growing as an independent artist, and I’m so glad I found your video 💙 I can’t wait to use your tips for pitching my next release!
Congrats! This video was so much more helpful and accessible than a lot of the big "music business" channels. I appreciate your personal, artist-based approach :)
wendy! thank u for your kind words i almost teared up when you said "you are doing great" and that "the most popular artists aren't necessarily the best musicians... they are just the most marketed". thanks for the tips i will use them when planning my next release
Thank you so much for this video! I recently started releasing music for he first time and I really appreciate videos that are so honest like yours and that come from an independent artist like us. And you’re right, it’s a lot of hard work, there’s a lot to learn and to put into practice, but at the end it’s so rewarding to see your project grow. Wish you the best of success and please keep sharing videos like these!
Thank you for the video, everything is very clear and accessible, continue to make your music from the heart and every day more and more people will listen to you 🌞 And most importantly, never give up, thanks again for the video 🌞
thank you so much for this! I needed this push! I don't have many people who I can get advic from in this industry and your video and channel is exactly what I needed!
Awesome video. I'm just getting started in this world. My first pitch will be this week. Thanks for the encouragement. Much love and luck on your journey!
Ei Wendy, muito obrigado pelo vídeo! Estou no meu quinto lançamento, mas é o primeiro em que eu irei fazer o pitch para o Spotify. Suas dicas me ajudaram muito! E vamos em frente! Muito obrigado mesmo!!!
Halfway through watching this I realized you’re one of the artists I accepted to my playlists lol hi! Amazing how the RU-vid algorithm figured that out
Very good video thank you! I like how you got together with someone through instagram in another country, I got my first record deal like that! I live in CA and they lived in London, we never met until after the record was out then I went to London to meet them. You just never know how things will roll for you!
Loved your video! I am also an artist now based in Portugal but I am brazilian and so I also have that problem where I don't know for sure where to put my location but I love that spotify has this "place you feel more connected to" thing. I literally never thought about putting a quote from the lyrics in the pitch but that's incredible because you can literally quote the point of the song in addition to explaining it! I am planning to release every month in 2021 (already released in January!), I just need to keep my creative work going. Subscribed because I want to see more on music marketing! Cheers :)
This was super helpful, I’ve been making music for over 3 years now but haven’t been ready to release the songs i recorded this year because I don’t know all these extra steps I needed to do. I only thought about promoting it on Tiktok, but getting onto playlists makes so much sense to grow and have people hear my music. Thank you so so much for all the tips and I am excited to take on this journey as an independent artist!
Thank you! So much this was really helpful really appreciate you doing this very few can share such information. You're such a great artist continue being such an artist dont change would be lovely to work with you
This Video deserves an award. i've been to an editorial playlist last week thursday and what you're saying in this video is axactly what i did . i wish i have seen this vedio before that
amazing tips! thanks so much for sharing your steps and all the effort you also put in not only into music but into this one as well! much love and blessing for you! helped a lot! go for your dreams!!
Awesome video! I found you on TikTok and came here. We are complete opposite genres, but I love what you’re doing and love seeing good people win! Keep it up and thanks for the video and your insights. 👏👏👏
Apart from all the advice and steps i think my best part of this vid was actually from 9:14-9:23 the "formal british" part 😄 , thanks so much for this walk-through i actually paused the vid to listen to your songs and they're real good.
This was super helpful. Thank you. My daughter has released some songs this year, and gotten quite a few views, but hasn't been on any Spotify playlists. Thank you for the practical, real advice.
Your voice is so soothing, must be great hanging out with you :) You also organize the info well, thanks for the encouraging and useful video! Will be waiting for the marketing one too!
Yes, Wendy, this video was SUPER helpful for me. A couple of those points I already knew about. The one I needed to see the most was about what exactly to write in the pitch. (I took a screenshot of yours as an example to look back on📱) I’ve also started planning dates on when to drop specific singles (every month). Also, just so you know, Wendy, you are doing an excellent job as well‼️I can see your growth and you should be VERY proud of yourself☺️I will forever be a fan of you and your music💓💓💓You & that bacon, tho🤣🤣🥓
THANK YOU! I am so so glad this helped you :) yes!!! plan your releases ahead - it helps with staying on top of it, and it also helps me to avoid getting overwhelmed. let me know if you have any questions so that I can cover them in more videos!
@@wendylucasmusic Will do‼️I actually look forward to the next video I believe you said you were gonna do about marketing music. Again, I am proud of you and you already know Imma stay in touch💓
@@wendylucasmusic quick Q! How do you add a location for your Spotify profile. I can’t seem to figure it out 😂 tried looking at how to’s but I’m still not seeing it. Maybe I’m missing something really obvious 🤓
@@justmanuka there's a question in the pitch where you can put the location you connect most to. For my profile, I just put it in my bio! (Wendy Lucas is a Portuguese-American singer-songwriter... etc.)
