Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Become a singer and actor first!. Audition for plays and musicals at your local theatre and if you want to do solo singing (hopefully you play guitar or can otherwise accompany yourself) ask at local coffee houses and even art galleries!. Build a following and get a website!. Make sure people know you are available for house parties!.

No kidding there -- one man in my little town opens his big house for house concerts about once or twice a month depending on when he can book a musician!. He asks people to bring $10-15 a person that all goes to the performer and people bring appetizers or snacks to share afterward!. Once he had 100 people show up!. Think of that bit of cash for a 1 1/2 hour set! Intimate venues are becoming more popular!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You don't need an agent or a manager!. Agents are free, managers usally charge!. An agent won't make you a singer and actor, you have to do that and then get an agent!. Better get busy being in plays and taking voice lessons!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

An agent doesn't take anything neither does a manager unless you get booked to do something by your agent in which case the agent takes 10% and a manager takes 15%!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
