Navigating a route towards a music career can be complex and involves a lot of questioning (others as well as yourself), a certain amount of good fortune, hard work and a degree of open-mindedness. I’d recommend anyone interested in music follow as many social media accounts of organisations and companies of interest to keep up to date with developments, opportunities and events. Further, there are lots of fantastic newsletters regarding industry news that you can sign up to.
The creative industries are one of the UK’s most successful and recognisable sectors, and the figures are impressive. In 2019, pre-Covid, the creative industries contributed £115.9bn to the economy, with music contributing £5.8bn and employing nearly 200,000 full-time equivalent jobs according to UK Music’s research. We are already seeing a bounce-back after Covid and a resurgent music industry means opportunities.
