The Berman Brothers – HuffPost 7.9.14

Mike Ragogna: What advice do you have for new artists?

Frank Berman: Be very independent, be responsible for your own career, find a good team around you and persistence and talent is equal in these days.

Chris Berman: I think that’s something. I have a friend here, she’s so talented and maybe fifteen years ago, she would’ve been picked up by a major label and had a deal. But now, she’s just lacking that last drive of intensity to go out and really go for yourself. I think she will not make it because of that. There’s another friend I have and she’s a singer-songwriter and maybe her talent is not as really wonderful, but she’s so on her career. She does everything right to put herself as an artist out there and I think she will make it. I think in these days where independent artists have such a great opportunity, I think the industry is creating a lot of problems, but also creating a lot of opportunity for young artists. If they use the new world as their tool, they can really go far.
