By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 25 May 2022
The Artist:Entrepreneur Day from the Featured Artists Coalition and CMU:DIY is back, with editions coming up in Hull and Southampton thanks to the support of Arts Council England.
The Artist:Entrepreneur Day is an artist-led event that provides important information and practical advice to help early-stage artists build a long-term career and sustainable business around their music.
Each edition sees three FAC artist entrepreneurs open up their artist businesses, explaining how they have built a fanbase, generated revenue from their music-making, and chosen business partners to work with. CMU’s Chris Cooke and a team of music industry experts are also on hand to provide insights, ideas and lots of practical advice.
The Hull edition of A:E Day takes place at Social on Saturday 25 Jun from 11am to 4pm, with artist entrepreneurs Elle Chante, Stewart Baxter (LIFE) and Katie Spencer. Click here for information or to access free tickets.
The Southampton edition of A:E Day takes place at The Stage Door on Saturday 2 Jul from 11am to 4pm, with artist entrepreneurs WREN, Russell Marsden (Band Of Skulls) and Benny Bizzie. Click here for information or to access free tickets.
