The excessive pressures placed on artists – and how to fix it: with Grammy and Juno-nominated artist manager Piers Henwood
Manage episode 375709235 series 3006076
Ep 120: We're joined by Piers Henwood, a Grammy and Juno-nominated artist manager and musician. Artists today are under increasing pressure to do, well, lots of stuff: write, record and release music, create TikToks, collaborate, communicate with fans, go on tours, and so much more. A while ago, Piers wrote a guest post on Music Ally about “the implications of the pressure placed on artists to succeed in a needy industry and an always-on culture” – so we wanted to talk to him more deeply about the relationship between fans and artists, and the pressures that artists experience. Henwood says it’s time we take another look at who the customer is in this system, and help artists retreat from the always-on approach. Music Ally Editor Joe Sparrow chatted to him about what a healthy and sustainable creative existence is for the people who, ultimately, are at the centre of everything we love about music.
