S3E08 - Navigating the Function Musician World as an Older Musician
In this episode of The Full-Time Function Musician Podcast, I'm joined by 50's swing and rock & roll singer Simon Lane. At 60 years old, Simon brings decades of experience from pubs, weddings, vintage festivals, and even busking on the streets. He shares candid insights about what it’s like to navigate the modern music industry as an older performer.
We discuss how self-awareness, smart positioning, and finding the right niche can help older musicians stay relevant, book the right gigs, and continue to thrive in the industry. Whether it’s pacing yourself physically, choosing the right events, or embracing modern marketing in a way that works for you, this conversation is packed with practical insights for any musician who feels they might be “too late” to the party.
