Exposed Vocals just caught an exclusive with Pierce Alexander Lilholt

Exposed Vocals: So tell us your story. Where did you grow up? What made you decide to become an artist?

Pierce Alexander Lilholt: I haven’t grown up yet. I was born an artist.

Exposed Vocals: How did you come up with that name? What was your inspiration behind it?

Pierce Alexander Lilholt: My parents picked it for me.  I am very inspirational.

Exposed Vocals: What do you think about online music sharing? Do you ever give your music away for free? Why?

Pierce Alexander Lilholt: I think online music sharing is great. I always give my music away for free.  Why???  I don’t think as many people would hear it if I suggested that they pay me for the pleasure.

Exposed Vocals: Since everyone was a start-up once, can you give any smaller or local bands or artists looking to get gigs and airplay some tips?

Pierce Alexander Lilholt: I believe www.ContactRadioStations.com is a great place to start if airplay is what you are looking for. I also believe there is a great deal of value to be found with networks like Musician International.  It is also important to trust in professionals who know the region and the audiences you wish to reach.  Yellow Star Studios is huge in Hollywood, and I couldn’t think of better support on the West Coast.  Leveraging organizations like www.MusicAwardBureau.com to attain credentials of achievement for you presskits can also make a huge difference when reaching out to radio stations.  The International Music Award Bureau is best known for the West Coast Music Award, the East Coast Music Award, the NYC Music Award, the Philadelphia Music Award, the Philly Soul Award, the Sound Wave Award, and www.2016music.com. These awards are widely recognized as achievements and validations amongst radio producers and musicians alike.

Exposed Vocals: Do you ever make mistakes during performances? How do you handle that?

Pierce Alexander Lilholt: I might play a note that you find displeasing, but I never make mistakes.  I don’t think making music is a mistake, and dissonance is a part of music and life.

Pierce Alexander Lilholt: Touring is fun! What happens on tour stays on tour!

Exposed Vocals: Where do you usually gather songwriting inspiration? What is your usual songwriting process?

Exposed Vocals: Do you have a band website? What online platforms do you use to share your music?

Pierce Alexander Lilholt: If you would call me playing the piano a band, you could check out my band website at www.PierceLilholt.com.  I typically upload my piano videos to YouTube at www.youtube.com/piercealexanderlilholt.  I also like to share my videos on Twitter at www.twitter.com/piercelilholt.

Exposed Vocals: If you were given half a million dollars and a year off, what would you do? How would you spend it?
