The Good & Bad Of Being A Gigging Musician - Hosts Luke & Lee | EP 24
In this week’s episode of our music podcast for creatives, hosts Luke & Lee dive deep into the realities of being a gigging musician in the local music scene. If you’re a young musician, unsigned artist, cover artist or working performer, this conversation offers a brutally honest look at both the highs and lows of chasing your passion for live music.
🎸 From packed venues and electric crowds to awkward gigs and last-minute cancellations, Luke & Lee explore the truth behind the lifestyle of a working musician. Lee opens up about his dream to make a living from music, and how the reality sometimes means missing weekends, family events, and facing unpredictable audiences. But when it works? The connection with a live crowd is unlike anything else.
🎶 In this episode, we cover:
The emotional and financial challenges of gig life
What makes someone cut out to be a gigging musician
The sacrifices musicians make behind the scenes
The reward of performing live and building a local fanbase
Advice for unsigned bands, singers, and local performers
