I was playing at five, putting bands together and playing at church by ten, and had recorded an album by fifteen.
By sixteen or seventeen, I’d made about $31 at a show, hit a deer on the way home, and couldn’t afford Waffle House.
The deer got paid better than I did.
So I became an engineer. Then a business owner. The music habit proved harder to shake.
Years later, I brought those business skills back to my music. I handled the branding, research, outreach, and follow-up myself, using modern tools to keep the work manageable.
My music agent helps me turn the plan into an organized campaign. It supports the research and day-to-day follow-through; I check the information, choose the approach, and stay responsible for what goes out.
I put that work into a system I call the LabelBox Method. No mystery handshake. Just a repeatable way to get prepared, find a fit, and make a sensible ask. Here’s where it took Feel This Way.
