Join us for an evening of candid conversation with four experienced musicians, discussing the balance between writing and releasing original music and sustaining a career in the industry.
Part of We Make Culture’s Next Steps programme, the panel is made up of:
Paul Smith (Maximo Park)
Ruth Lyon
David Brewis (Field Music)
and
Cortney Dixon
All of which are actively writing, releasing and touring original music worldwide and make an income through various “portfolio careers”. This is a fantastic chance to hear from the horses mouth the realities of being a working artist and musician in 2025, the highs and the lows and how the landscape has changed throughout the years that they have been active.
Tickets are completely free and this event is open to all ages. Thank you to our friends at Port Independent for hosting this event and providing refreshments that can be purchased on the night.
