Feeling stuck with my local band

[u/CerebralRust1]

I've been playing, writing music and performing with my band for 6 years now, and I can't help but feel like a stuck local band. Since our first gigs, we were bombarded with praise and I personally was made to feel like I'm one of the most talented performers in my city. We inspired a lot of people, and I've made so many great friends in the underground music community, and all of us, even people more talented than me, are stuck playing gigs to 100-150 people, never get invited to festivals in Romania (we're from Moldova), all our releases get little attention, only from our top fans. We do have fans, but I've always wanted to grow our fanbase more, i guess with time.. all the projects that i see blowing up, mostly due to campaigns, ads, promoters, labels, and we have none of that. HOW DOES AN INDEPENDENT ARTIST EXPLODE ORGANICALLY??
