Introduction to The A-Z of Performing For Children

The children’s music industry is one of mystery but many a splendour. It is – at least in my humble opinion – the most feel-good, experimental and rewarding genre to find oneself caught up in. And there’s no doubt it will bring immense joy especially to those who approach it with audience-focused intent.

At MMMA, one of the most common questions we get is: ‘Where do I start? I have an idea and a basketful of songs … What next?’ Well, we heard you and in response we’ve put together this little helper. Featuring expert advice and hard-won wisdom from a range of industry heavyweights, this is your one-stop guide to writing and performing music for our most capable citizens. From working out your ‘why’ to capturing the perfect promo pic, navigating social media to grant applications, all things go under the microscope as we offer handy hints, tips and tricks to help you get your ideas off the ground and into the air.

Best of luck …
