Best Practice

First Music Contact is currently carrying out research in the Music Sectors and the Music Industries in the UK, US and Europe in an effort to establish a workable pay scale and rates for musicians for live, studio and festival work in Ireland. While we acknowledge that it is up to each of you to negotiate on rates in your own favour, we think a set of reference points may be helpful.

We will post those rates on this page.

If you would like to contribute to this research, please email angela@firstmusiccontact.com
