How To Make A Living From Music

US Matt Johnson's tips for achieving your goals      18/01/23

Matt Johnston's youtube channel is packed with synth reviews, playing tips, and theory lessons to educate and entertain. In this video, he takes a different approach; discussing his story as the long time keyboard player for Jamiroquai. It features a wealth of information, tips, and ideas on starting out, getting gigs and working with others. 

You'll find simple advice here too - for example how being nice, and approachable will take you a long way on its own. As he says, "The harder you work, the luckier you get" - inevitably, there is no substitute for hard work.
