According to a Study, Almost Half of Working Musicians Struggle to Make Ends Meet | Rising Star Giveaway - Reward 10000 (+5000) Starbits (Ends 23 September UTC)

avatar

Many people think that those who work in the music industry earn serious money, but according to a study, almost half of those who work in the music industry are struggling to make ends meet.


Source

The Musicians’ Census, a project created by the Musicians’ Union and charity Help Musicians in the United Kingdom, also found that almost half of musicians struggle with equipment and transport costs. These statistics are from a new census of nearly 6,000 working musicians.

Research shows that almost half of those working in the music industry are struggling to make ends meet. Click to view the research report, statistics and more. You can also see the explanations of some musicians who participated in the research in the report. Also, click to read the full study.

The research also found that 46 per cent of working musicians earn less than £14,000 a year.


Source

Considering the average annual minimum wage in the UK, the research shows that 46% of working musicians in the UK earn well below the minimum wage.

Frankly, this research surprised me because I thought musicians working in the music industry earned a lot of money.

A Proverb: "the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence"

After doing a quick search on the web, I read that musicians, not just in the UK but in many other countries, are struggling with similar difficulties. After this research, I realized that we do not value musicians enough, I think we should support more those working in the music industry, I think most of them deserve it.

Question of the Day: What do you think about the research?

Unfortunately, as all arts, music doesn't earn enough for a living. And countries like Spain and Italy are even worse. In Italy you averagely need to be in a family of famous artists to live on your music/paintings/literature. You need to be super skilled enough (and lucky enough to avoid adverse external circumstances) to overcome such a nepotism being an Italian cultural trait.

It is really sad that there is economic injustice and nepotism. Maybe that's why great works are not produced and art is far behind compared to before 1990. !PIZZA !PGM

Many musicians operate within a gig economy or freelance model, where they rely on individual performances, studio sessions, or teaching gigs for their income. This type of work can be unpredictable, and musicians often face challenges in securing consistent and well-paying opportunities.

Instead of relying on other people's careers, you should try to improve your career. The grass in other people's yard is greener, just staring at the grass in my own yard will not green and glow.

I am not surprised to hear that. It's a tough business and I just think it's hard for people who are just starting off or less well known. I do think it should be slightly easier now with Youtube and social medias but I am not sure if that has helped their situation.

It is not easy to make money on similar social media platforms such as Youtube and Tiktok, they do not pay a lot of money, but it is possible to make good profits from advertising. Frankly, if I were an artist, I would take great advantage of social media opportunities.There are already people who do this very well. !PGM !PIZZA

Congratulations @henruc! Count me in for another round, please! Thank you so very much!

This research doesn't actually surprise me. There are a lot of musicians, and most aren't signed to the big record labels, so they have to work a lot harder, and they don't make anywhere near as much. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
