Pathways to Music

“Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.” – Jimi Hendrix

Here at Young Scot  we couldn’t agree more with the sentiment expressed by the probably the greatest guitarist to have lived. And so, we want to help young people in Scotland get involved, help influence and participate in the music industry.

So, with the help of Creative Scotland, we’ve put together the Pathways To Music initiative, which is designed to let you get the most out of the industry.

When you search for Pathways to Music on Young Scot Extra you’ll find articles, videos and podcasts from people who know what it’s all about. And it’s not just indie music and pop singers – on these pages you’ll find everything you need to know to become a soprano singer, a DJ, a music journalist or photographer, even how to get involved in putting on gigs and events.

There's also a whole host of discounts available, including recording studio time, so be sure to look out for those.

Why not have a look around now at the articles, podcasts and videos that are up already? And be sure to tell your friends all about it too – just click the ‘like’ button on any article that impressed you.
