What you need on your resume as a freelance musician.

[@TerminalSopor]

Thank you for this! I am applying for a teacher position, however my current resume didn't have any of my musical experience so this was a big help for me to organize my resume!

amazing! thank you!

Also like a regular resume is consecutive work or education in music necessary to get the job or having gaps won’t be a big deal

[@hawaiiflute]

You are applying for jobs in the entertainment industry, right? With that I’m not sure, but I think the gaps are ok.

[@rhinabhaditya2160]

I am a self taught guitarist and vocalist( Vocals in Indian Classical). Are there any jobs that I can get in the music industry?

[@hawaiiflute]

No jobs in the traditional sense. As a musician, esp as a singer/songwriter, you’ll have to create you’re own « product » and sell this to people on your own. Playing out in public a lot, etc. You might get gigs that pay $50 - $200 or something, but no job with measurable income

[@ericarenee6116]

So I have tooken music courses but my associates degrees ended up in teacher prep and mathematics. Would you recommend still putting my degrees but just specifying the courses I took in music? Technically this is to submit to international hotel entertainer jobs as a singer dancer gym class instructor schedules

[@hawaiiflute]

Yes, definitely still put down your degrees and specify your music classes as effieciently as possible. You could even maybe say after your degree title, « with an emphasis on music ».
