Every musician I know loves watching pretty any music documentary. Not only the ones about the big artists, but the documentaries about the small artists and the mid-size artists and all of the rest of them too.
Why?
Because documentaries aren’t centered around achievements. If they were we’d only watch The Beatles and Beyonce. Music docs are centered around stories. And we love stories. And all the music docs tell a story.
Too often this idea gets lost on social media.
Artists are content to tell of their achievements and accolades rather than acknowledging and breathing life into the story they’re telling…or could be telling.
If all you’re telling about is your achievements, you’ll always need more of them in order to have something ‘worth’ telling.
On the other hand if you’re telling a story…you don’t have to wait for achievements…you simply get to write the story.
