Question:
I'm looking to come up with a resume for myself as a drummer but I'm
not too sure how I should organize it and what to specifically
include. I figure some of you here have put together something like
this for yourselves and I was wondering if you come offer some
suggestions to how I could approach this.
Answer:
- would say that the best way to approach it is kind of by
sections as with any other resume, Include a little bit of info on
yourself as far as age, location, and so on, you can also include your
influences musically and that sort of thing.Then I would suggest
providing some info on your playing background years you have been
playing who you have studied with what kinds of music you like or are
influenced by stylistically and so on, and lastly a list of your
credits, live work, sessions, radio or TVappearences and the like. Some
guys also like to include a list of their gear, sizes makes etc. I hope
this is of some help to you!!!
- A written resume should only be a page; but on a web page, can have
much depth using links.
My on-line resume is at:
http://www.geocities.com/vindrums/about-us/music-resume.htm
Sorry if it doesn't come up as a link, but I'm still trying to post in
Google....Verizon told me today, after leading me on for two months,
that they can't help me with the websites. They can verify settings,
and claim that the groups are there, but I haven't seen them since
June 24! Now I have to pay them to cancel.
