WHAT DO MUSIC MANAGERS DO?

Amelia Lilley

Your basic role is to bring together the people and projects which meet the goals of the artist and their record company. That goal could be anything from generating a top 10 hit or getting a gig at Glastonbury. As well as the artists and record labels you represent.

To be a good music manager you need to be organised, excellent with people and have a good understanding of the industry as it stands today.
