An ambitious start
While studying, he still continued playing and writing music. By the time he graduated, he was now ready to enter and immerse himself in the world of music. He was thinking big – he decided to release his first album by himself.
It was pretty ambitious of Kenny but he did all the hard work on his own. He promoted the album on his own and he sold it whenever he was performing in local clubs. Kenny was enjoying life as a musician and he loved it.
A local star
Kenny was able to sell 1,000 copies of his album. It was not a platinum-level sale but considering that he is doing everything by himself, it was a big deal. Kenny bought a new guitar with the money he made from his first album.
Kenny became a local star in his town. But he also knew that if he seriously wanted to be in the music industry, he needed to be where all the big gigs were happening. He needed to increase the chances of a talent scout or someone from a record label to spot him.
