As a non-profit organisation, Parachute Music depends on individuals who believe in what we’re doing, who attend our events and who contribute financially.
WHERE ARE WE AT?
Artists - Touring is getting more expensive, as is running events. We have a lot of experience in many of the things we do, but this doesn’t mean it gets easier. Actually, the financial climate is making things harder. Artists need a lot of support to do what they do. We want to assist them holistically by:
- Giving them experienced management to help them with every aspect of their career, from day-to-day issues to long-term planning.
- Providing input into building strong personal and spiritual lives
- Giving them training and inspiration through events like Noise
- Organising tours and other events to build their profile
- Assisting them to record in a way that won’t bankrupt them
- Providing rehearsal and song writing facilities
- Building a community for Christian musicians
Events – Every year it gets more difficult to make Parachute Festival and the other events we run break even financially. We are constantly balancing quality and excellence with cost. At the moment we are in the middle of a major cost cutting exercise for Parachute Festival 2012 – we need to generate more money to move the festival into the future.
