Question by ally: What are some top jobs within the music industry? PLEASE READ!!?
Im really into music, and into bands, musicians ect.
I like going to gigs, and reading about musicians and stuff like that.

Im 17, and at the moment, im trying to decide what to do after school. I saw Missy Higgins last night in concert and I dont know, it kinda just hit me to do something in the music industry because i love every aspect of it.

What are some good jobs in the music industry?
And do you know what courses you need to do in uni?
And are they reasonably well paid ect?

Thanks xx

I love music also and wish I had gone in that direction. I’m sure there are various opportunities out there. I would call the college in your town and find out what some of the classes are and what direction to move in. I’m sure there’s: a DJ (gotta have a DJ voice for that) or a roadie maybe. But that may not be what you’re looking for so I’m not really sure what all is out there. I don’t know but I’m sure your local college could help you. Or call the radio station if that’s a direction. You never know what any career will lead into as you get older. Soon good luck!
