In this episode Mishkin and I get brutally honest about making music with no money. From catastrophic videoshoots to sleeping in car parks, we share hard-won advice on calling in favours, skill swapping, and building a music career when you're completely broke.
Do you have the best job in the world but also want to quit at least once a day?
Are you always on the VIP list but somehow end up eating dinner by the bins?
Do you ever play to a crowd and yet sometimes feel like the loneliest person in the room?
Do you lie awake at night questioning your life choices?
Well, you’re not alone.
Being a musician is hard at the best of times, and we’re here to help.
Join Mishkin Fitzgerald and Hana Piranha as they talk about the highs and lows of being a musician.
