Music Is Ours offers advice on all aspects of the music business.

Music Is Ours offers advice on all aspects of the music business.

Since singing in a band, running house music clubs and establishing a number of record labels, I have always wanted to help others make their own way in the music industry and try and shed some light on its darker corners, as let’s face it there are quite a few of them. Yes, It is hard to get into and passion and belief are key elements, but it can lead to a very rewarding career.

There are lots of support agencies and other ways to get advice, but what I am offering is first hand practical experience to those, either just looking to establish themselves or to established operators who just need a new pair of eyes to look at their business.

We’re looking to map anything; bands, singers, musicians, promoters, managers, venues, record shops, music shops, hangouts, anything that has a “place” and that place in in Brum (or nearby).

There are lots of reasons for doing it, mainly that it’s great to have a record of such stuff — we could use it as the basis of research, art, or displays or, well tons of stuff.

But there’s something special I want to do with it (’tis a secret) , and I want to be able to do it before the end of the month. June is, as we’ve been going on about, Birmingham Music Month — and it would be great to have a load of this done come July.

So, we’ve created a Google map, and started to add stuff to it — and we’d like you to help as much as you can.

We're primarily a punk zine based outta Newbury in the UK. Bands, we wanna review your stuff, so do send it in! Contact us now to get a copy or get involved!

UK it's £1.50 post paid or £1 at gigs. Europe and USA drop us a line and we'll discuss and stuff.

To order in Europe – please send £3.00 per issue via Paypal.
To order in Australia/USA – please send £4.00 per issue via Paypal

Bands who wanna get reviewed drop us a line and send us a CD, we don't do MP3's though.

We are a group of old music heads banding together in Manchester to form the company BandsOnTour www.bandsontour.me.uk.

We rent out studios, hire Splitter buses and have session artists, electricians, lighting and sound guys on staff. We aim to be a holistic service to the heart of the Northern music movements
