211 - Breaking Out of the Pub Circuit (Q from Pete)

You know that feeling when you’re good — genuinely good — yet you’re still playing the same pubs, the same tiny rooms, and wondering why you can’t break into the gigs you know you’re ready for?

This week’s episode dives into Pete’s brilliant question:
How do you break out of the pub circuit and start playing the gigs that actually move your career forward?

If you’ve ever felt stuck… under-seen… or like your playing deserves better rooms, this one’s for you.

Inside we cover:
• Why talent alone isn’t enough (and what actually is)
• How to get seen by the right musicians, MDs, and gig-getters
• The psychological shift that gets you OUT of “pub loops”
• How to find higher-level players who help you level up
• Why comfort zones kill careers (and how to step out of yours)
• The big mistake seasoned musicians make when trying to “get noticed”
If you’ve been nodding along because this is exactly where you’re stuck… you don’t have to figure it out alone.

🎧 Listen now — it might be the perspective shift you needed.
