I have a musician that I have been trying to get gigs for in the area but all I know how to do is get time on open mic's. How do I get his music to people at large venues. How do I get him into playing at the Roseland type of thing? Thanks everyone!
Well, it can't be that different here in Portland, Maine, as it is in the other Portland. Easiest way? Open for someone else. If you can draw a crowd to a show you're opening, you'll get another gig on your own. Further, if you can add a few hundred names to your email list after opening for someone else, you'll be able to get another gig on your own.
If you can't find a more established band that's willing to give you an opening slot, then that should tell you something about your music.
