Are you serious about turning your talent for making music into a career?


I’m Dave Holley, I’ve worked in the music industry for 30+ years. I have a network of friends (and friends of friends) who have built successful careers as artists or helped develop the careers of many of the biggest UK names on the world music scene. There is not much that they don’t know between them.


When added together, this network has hundreds, if not thousands, of years of experience. If you are serious about breaking into the music industry & then building a long term career you couldn’t hope for a better team of advisors.


I started gigomi to share the knowledge, insights & advice of this network with you.


Each week I talk with an artist or a music industry executive about their experience of:

  • How the music industry really works, and:

  • What you must do to give yourself the best chance of breaking into it
  • To make a good living
  • And Build a good life
  • While creating the fantastic music you were put on earth to create

  • #15 Ian Anderson
    2022/02/24


    Today’s guest is Ian Anderson, the driving force behind rock band Jethro Tull.

    Ian formed Jethro Tull in 1967 and this year – 55 years later - they released their 22nd studio album, The Zealot Game, which hit the Top 10 in the UK and beyond.

    Ian has always stood out. His instrument of choice is unusually the flute, which he is in the habit of playing while standing on one leg.

    Jethro Tull have had huge success with multiple gold and platinum albums that topped the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, they appeared on The Rolling Stones’ Rock & Roll Circus and alongside Jimi Hendrix at the legendary 1970 Isle of Wight Festival.

    Ian feared that his career as a professional musician might be a brief one and so set out to learn exactly how the music industry works to give himself the option of moving into a role in a record company or as a producer should the paying gigs dry up. They never did but he has used that knowledge to sustain his career over the decades and it has allowed him to become increasingly self-sufficient. These days Ian manages himself, manages the release and distribution of his records and even manages the day to day logistics of his tours.

    There is not much Ian does not know about the life of a gigging musician and the business of music.
