You know what, as the frauds are exposed from the music & movie industries, REAL people with REAL talent who just enjoy performing will be in great demand. If she loves it then she should hit the local coffee houses. She may find the right balance between her love of singing and what is a tolerable level of exposure.
When she started she was too young to go into areas that have singers. Like bars, we didn’t have places for her to sing at that time, now our area has grown more, she may have more opportunities. Her vocal coach at the time said that she has the voice, he was not teaching her, he was coaching her to bring her talent forward, because she was shy. He actually said he would have liked to do a song with her, but between his coaching work, his band that started getting really popular at the time (until a band mate passed away then I noticed they slowed down) & other local gigs, he was pretty busy. And I think maybe her age may have had another thing to do with it, he’s not a creepy guy who goes after teenagers (she was like 17-18 at the time), and she couldn’t go into places to sing with him because she was underage. Once in awhile we get lucky and happen to hit a spot where he’s performing and we say hi. He’s a good guy.
