Organisation: Caloundra Music Festival, Manager
How did you first become involved in the music business and how did you end up where you are today? I started my own small event management business running community events. I needed to cash to pay for my uni degree and I wanted to do something fun and choose my own hours.
What's been the biggest change in the music business you've seen over the past 12 months? It's been sad to see so many venues close and festivals fall over.
What do you think will be the biggest issue affecting the music industry in the next 12 months and why? I'll think on it.
