#TBT A year ago I sat in an audience in Langa Township with a relative handful of others. Ed Sheeran was giving an exclusive workshop in association with Bridges For Music, and sharing his journey, anecdotes, a wealth of advice and direction to many budding superstars in the room (and me). Because it feels more relevant now than it ever did, to find alternative ways of getting noticed as a performer, I am revisiting that blog post today and sharing the lessons learnt. “Getting noticed out there is very hard. But if you believe in yourself, in your product and in my case, a strong belief in the power of my messages, one needs to be brave, look for non-traditional ‘stages’ and out of the ordinary, new ways to show the world what you’ve got.” Link in Bio or www.ryanstramrood.com/blog@teddysphotos #edsheeran #capetown #throwback #throwbackthursday @bridgesformusic #pushpastimpossible
