Providing An Experience

I have friends in the music industry who have had multiple #1 singles on radio, but they could not afford their rent. So many bands have had to call it quits because they couldn’t make ends meet. This really breaks my heart.

Over my years in music, I’ve witnessed something disturbingly profound about music artists. As diverse as we are, many have a common misconception when it comes to live performance, something that has ultimately cost many their music career!

As artists, we need to change our approach to live performance and audience communication. Personally, I’ve found – as have countless other artists – that we pour so much of our attention and finances into the wrong places! In fact, the music industry, as a whole, lends itself to this mistake. 

We are often distracted with writing, recording or promoting “The Next Big Song,” or with things like buying more gear and updating our wardrobe, etc. While there’s nothing wrong with those necessary elements, they can effectually derail us from a successful future because of their ability to dominate. In reality, those things are just a prelude to our music career, leading to our live show.

When it comes to performing, I see many talented artists who are so focused on playing songs to their audience, instead of providing an experience to share with their audience, an experience that you are responsible for creating! 

Creating an experience is a process. It takes a lot of thought, work and effort. And it’s sad that so many artists don’t make it a priority to work those experiences into their show. Their live performances are where they make most of their income and usually find most of their fulfillment, sharing their music with people from all walks of life!

I have friends in the music industry who have had multiple #1 singles on radio, but they could not afford their rent. So many bands have had to call it quits because they couldn’t make ends meet. This really breaks my heart. Artists could strengthen their careers and make a far GREATER impact from the stage and form a deeper connection with their audience if only they decide to work on and invest in their live show.

If you wish to not make the same grave mistakes that countless other artists have made, connect with our team as I would like to personally offer a FREE consultation to help you jump start your live show!

3. What makes Purpose Live different from other performance coaching services?

We’re not just about making you look good; we’re about making you unforgettable.

It’s about authenticity, impact, and leaving a lasting impression on your audience.

No cookie-cutter solutions. Every artist is unique, and we tailor our approach to bring out your true essence on stage—no one-size-fits-all methods here.

No overwhelming production for production’s sake. We focus on YOU—your story, your message, and your audience. The production enhances your presence, but it never overshadows your essence.

5. If I sing and play well, isn’t that enough?

Singing and playing well are vital—but they’re just the beginning.

Performances that stand out go beyond talent. It’s about how you:

• Make your audience feel seen and connected
• Turn your songs into stories that resonate
• Create moments that stay with them long after the show ends

We help you elevate your performance, making sure your talent is packaged with dynamic stage presence, polished transitions, and memorable moments.

6. Why do you adjust song arrangements for live shows?

Because what works in the studio doesn’t always translate on stage.

Songs made for streaming or radio are fast-paced, designed to grab attention quickly. But a live show is a different experience—it’s about connection, depth, and immersion.

We’ll create space for the audience to breathe, engage, and feel every moment. Picture intros, outros, and interludes that turn each song into a journey, where every note invites your audience into the story you’re telling.

Imagine the energy of a sudden, dramatic shift that takes the crowd’s breath away, or the quiet, intimate vibe of a stripped-down section that feels like it’s just for them—those are the moments that resonate long after the music fades.

Think of it as tailoring your performance. We adapt your songs to create a flow that keeps audiences engaged, ensuring your show feels like a cohesive experience rather than just a collection of tracks.
