The Road to Terry - 065 - NO MORE SOCIAL MEDIA.

I’m nearly done with recording my album.  A lot of the lead vocals are down and it’s almost time for post-production.  The recent shift in many algorithms; YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook has led me to believe that I’m chasing a ghost.  It takes energy away from me, my art, and doing things that would help me grow an actual fan base. 

My community doesn’t live on social media.  The folks that listen to my music are a tribe that wants something that I supply.  That means they don’t need to go through a third party to get to me.  I want to be direct to the source.  It’s frustrating when I post about my albums, my songs, my videos, and they are shown to 200 people out of 2000 on Instagram. 

There’s a reason people follow me.  I’m pissed that they don’t see my work when they asked to.

It’s even worse when I try to gain new followers, but my post being shown to strangers are filtered as well. 

I’m done.  I’m fucking done.

I am no longer playing this game.  If you’d like to keep up with me there are a few ways that can happen under my control.
