The future

It’s concerning to hear that a quarter of UK music and theatre venues are considering closure as a result of high utility costs. Brits who are big fans of the stage already know just how important the music and arts industry is to UK culture and economy. Our new research at Uswitch uncovers that: ⚡ One in six venues have increased ticket prices as a result of rising costs ⚡ A quarter have increased the prices of refreshments ⚡ One in three worry they may not be able to pay their energy bills on time In spite of this though, many venues stand by the phrase ‘the show must go on’, with more than a third testing out new ways to reduce energy output.

Music is Economy— PERIOD!!! A centralized statewide office Makes it All Make Sense!!! A main key to success is organization. Let’s create the equilibrium needed, and collectively be drivers of effective change in the “gig” /“creator” economy.

Returning from a festival weekend is like no other, my Organizer friends know what I’m talking about. Luckily I have a few tips and tricks for managing the chaos . Tips For Preparing To Be Out Of Office | Live Events Style: ⭐️When setting your OOO response, list the response time it will take you to return emails. My boutique agency friends will appreciate this one. It will save you so much anxiety and set clear expectations, trust me. For example, “Thank you for reaching out, we can’t wait to curate your experience! Team FYMF is out of the office and onsite at another project but will be back first thing Monday. Please allow us a few days to review your request and follow up.” ⭐️Email all your active clients giving them a heads up. This works in your favor in multiple ways. Not only will this make your clients feel important and thought of, this looks good for business. The optics matter! Bonus tip! 💫 Email all your inactive clients letting them know what you’re doing this weekend and highlight your current client. This works wonders and most of the time leads to a new project. Don’t ask me how I know this 👀 ⭐️Block off the next few days in your calendar. A good leader knows when to limit the stress on their team and themselves. You’re going to need those days to catch up and re-incorporate into the grind. Do yourself a favor and move your meetings to the second half of the week. Hope you’re following along with FYMF Productions network! If not, check us out. #liveevents #organizers #musicindustry #adviceoftheday

As Ultra is happening on the East Coast, Beyond Wonderland unfolds on the West, and we were curious about the agencies behind this years Beyond Wonderland 2024 line-up. We used Booking Agent Info to research the agencies behind this years festival. (With a bit of rounding for simplicity) Interestingly, the top two agencies representing artists at Ultra are the same ones behind the lineup for Beyond Wonderland. United Talent Agency and Wasserman claim over half the artists at Beyond Wonderland, with UTA at the forefront with 30%, closely shadowed by Wasserman’s impressive 24%. A whopping 37% of the festival’s diversity is credited to a mosaic of other agencies, along with artists who handle their bookings in-house. This portion is not just significant, but it’s the very heart of the festival’s variety. Creative Artists Agency (CAA) represent 2% of the lineup, but that 2% are powerhouses The Chainsmokers and Alesso. Similarly, Corson Agency and Wright Bookings each account for 2%. David Lewis Productions secures 3% of the lineup, a figure that mirrors their representation at Ultra Music Festival. It should be noted that we excluded 8 artists from our dataset who we didn’t have data For more industry insights, follow Booking Agent Info #Beyond2024 #BeyondWonderland2024 #AgencyBreakdown #BookingAgentInfo #MadTeaParty

New Post: Artists on the challenges of 2023 and hopes for 2024: “I just want to see us getting paid for selling records” - https://lnkd.in/gfwWiZcY - As a new year begins, artists have revealed the biggest challenges that they faced in 2023, and the changes they want to see made to the musical landscape in the 12 months ahead. READ MORE: 2023 was “worst year for venue closures” while “no one in music industry seems to care”, say MVT The NME recently supported the Featured Artist Coalition’s 2023 End of Year Party and AGM at Walthamstow’s Signature Brew in London. Following on from 2021 and 2022, NME returned to support the event as well as chairing an artist-led ‘Year in Music’ panel discussion featuring Murray Matravers of the band formerly known as Easy Life, Sam Duckworth of Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly, along with rising and acclaimed singer-songwriters LVRA and Cherise. As well as tackling subjects such as streaming royalties reform, the application of AI in music, the 100 Per Cent Venues campaign to end punitive commissions on merchandise sales, and the #LetTheMusicMove campaign to encourage friction-free international touring, the event also saw artists explain how issues of race, education, politics, fair payment and venue closures needed tackling. The panel was introduced by a speech from FAC CEO David Martin and the group’s Artist in Residence, Blur drummer Dave Rowntree. Martin pointed out the success of their campaign for venues to take a smaller cut of musicians’ merch revenue, while arguing that that “being an artist has never represented the easy path, but today’s musical landscape is especially complex”. This, he explained, was due to matters relating to “making touring financially viable, achieving cut-through on streaming services, or simply finding the space and environment to create.” “It was already a battle for attention, and now we have the prospect of AI increasing the rate of content creation,” he added. “In the words of the late, great Andrew Weatherall, ‘While technology has left us at the apex of a punk rock dream where anyone can make art, in practice that’s becoming a double-edged sword – it’s becoming hard to see the trees for the woods’. However, while technology presents new challenges, it has undoubtedly opened up new paths for artists to explore.” Rowntree agreed, adding: “It has been quite a year for me. With Blur I released our ninth major label album alongside a world tour, including two sold out nights at Wembley Stadium. At the same time, I launched my solo career – releasing my debut album on an indie label alongside a more modest tour that included one sold-out night at The Joiners in Southampton. Which did I enjoy more? That’s the question.” Graham Coxon, Damon Albarn and Dave Rowntree of Blur perform at Wembley Stadium (Photo by Lorne Thomson/Redferns) Admitting that “one event arguably overshadowed the other”, Rowntr
