I wanted to direct you to this article if you have a minute - it’s excellently written, searingly insightful, and very personal.

Music, mental health and the struggle to connect - joe.ie/music/music-ch…
It’s a changing time to be a musician- albums don’t make much money, record labels are not as free with advances, & supporting yourself & paying rent is more expensive than ever.

But music is important- it can empathise with you, encourage you, & help you face the day.
No-one deserves a living just because they put on a guitar, of course not, but for people who do, members of the music community are 3 times more likely to experience depression than the general public. This is a shocking figure.
We need to look after our creative people - or else there will be less music, less art, and less colour and light in our homes & heads.
