Friday Street Music @229 every Tuesday

Posted 13 April 2010 | NEWS   


Friday Street Music is run by people in the music industry, for the music industry.
This is what makes us unique.
“The opportunity to see an act live is one of the most important factors prior to signing, and originality is foremost in the minds of A&R men” says Paul Conroy former President of Virgin Records and Chrysalis “There is nothing like live performance to hone the abilities of artistes and Friday Street Music provide the ideal environment for bands to get seen early on in their careers”

You don’t have to be a genius to work out that the music industry is changing, and changing fast. Record sales are on the decline, and people are accessing music in ways they never used to.

Does this mean the industry is dead?

No. . . . .but it does mean that the role of A&R has changed. Due to budgets being cut, labels are cutting back on expensive development/production deals. These were crucial in “growing an artist”.

Most London music promoters offer unfair ‘pay to play’ schemes. We are not looking to profit from our nights. We ask you to bring a minimum number of people to cover our costs (Venue hire, Door Staff, Sound Engineer, running costs etc.) once you have done this, we pay you the FULL ticket price.

Click here to meet our team, and the industry that attend our showcases.

We have live music venues across London and if you are selected to play at one of our showcases we will provide you with a 1st Class venue, a sound engineer, affordable EPK’s filmed by our very own film crew, and more importantly music industry executives for you to play to.
