Lesson 1 of the music industry: do not be a knob. Today’s opener took everyone’s alcohol, performed and cleared off. Why should we support them with gigs and airplay with behaviour like that?

Life is music is TOUGH, working class artists are calling it a day, grass roots venues are shutting their doors and Nepo baby life, cronyism, unconscious bias and conflicts of interests are impacting more than EVER. So I feel its important to champion as many new artists as I can

The music industry in the south is missing out so much at the moment, I can honestly say hand on heart that things are going off musicially in the north ridiculously. So much talent, so much incredible music and it’s an honour to witness and document it

Bands / artists: advice - no matter where you are on the bill, make sure you stick around and watch all the artists on a bill. The networking really helps build connections in the music industry!

I’m done with ageism now, I’m done with not ticking the right boxes. I’m me, I’ve got a tonne of skills, I’ve got great ears and I’m my own authentic self. If you’ve got an issue with that, then it’s YOUR problem.

Can we stop saying ‘female artist’ ‘female singer’ or ‘non binary musician’ we wouldn’t say ‘male artist’ would we? Gender is not a genre.
19

239
Can we normalise career changes? Can we normalise that you don't have to have all the answers at 20, and can we normalise that you don't have to be 22 to get opportunities opened up to you. AGEISM is everywhere and still not being tackled.

Can I just remind you if you’re watching artists for the first time at the artist showcase festivals that they often don’t get a full sound check and if things are already running behind they are out under incredible pressure, be kind and considerate in your thoughts pls

Immensely proud to rep the music from the north of england, so much heart, so many incredible lyrics.
If covid has taught us anything, can we learn that the music industry does NOT have to be based in London.

The only people surviving in the creative industries right now are middle and upper class people. There will be no working class people left if you keep reducing salaries, not paying people when they should be paid and paying them a pittance.

I’ve seen loads of stuff circulating today about someone saying unsigned bands / artists are crap. As someone who lives and breathes new music I can categorically say that they are talking crap.

BETTER JOBS? What a bloody insult to those live promoters, sound techs, wedding photographers. I know who I have more faith in.
When I asked about those in sectors including the creative, events and wedding industries, the Business Secretary said the answer is the welfare system, or learning skills to get "better jobs". He doesn't get that people love these jobs & businesses. Government must support them.

Stop rewarding influencers and hustle culture. Stop rewarding the NEPO babies, stop giving opportunities to people who can afford to be sat around on their arses doing nothing waiting for opportunities to come up.

Been thinking a lot about a couple of conversations I've had recently with musicians, don't ever forget that what you bring to the table no-one else can. It's YOU, your essence, your ears, your skills, your story. Don't ever doubt yourself xx

The whole music and radio industry is heavily based on bravado and fake it until you make it. Not ideal for neuro diverse people who are empathetic and suffer from low self esteem eh?

Ok so I'm gonna call this out, not based on my experiences of late. But can the radio & music industry STOP judging women. It doesn't matter what size we are, how old we are, how we dress, if we wear make up, or if we have kids. What matters is HOW WE DO OUR JOB. FFS.

You know what’s really damaging? Guys working in the music industry telling women what jobs they can and can’t make a success of. Why can’t you empower and support women rather than trying to belittle them?

No organisation will admit they are ageist, that they’re targeting at a specific demographic but they ALL are. When it comes to music, surely knowledge is power? But often these days they’d rather prioritise aesthetic or influenced culture. Has it really come to this?

I'm so incredibly triggered by all the discourse about Sarah Everard, I know I'm not alone in this. It's made me realise how many things I've blocked out over the years. Sending all my love to her family & friends and anyone else suffering or triggered rn.
