Professional musicians have described feelings of powerlessness and hopelessness since March 2020 when work instantly dropped away as coronavirus restrictions shut down their industry almost completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A survey of 700 professional musicians resulted in troubling statistics. 87% of participants said their mental health has deteriorated since the onset of the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Help Musicians offers funding support and advice for musicians, and the charity leapt into action last year to increase its counselling and support measures in response to the pandemic. The Music Minds Matter <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/where-to-get-help-for-mental-health-as-a-musician-manager-label-and-tour-crew\/\">support line<\/a> offers a supportive ear for musicians whatever the cause. If musicians struggle to voice their worries aloud, Help Musicians is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.helpmusicians.org.uk\/news\/latest-news\/further-mental-health-support-for-musicians-to-mark-world-me\">currently offering free access to the Thrive app,<\/a> for one-to-one sessions to help users identify and manage mental health problems like anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Today we released the concerning findings from our recent survey. While the financial impact of the pandemic on musicians has been clear, the nature of mental health challenges means they can be much less obvious.

Out of the musicians who took part, only 4% said they weren\u2019t worried about money. 7 out of 10 said they weren\u2019t sure they\u2019d be able to <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/do-the-economics-of-music-streaming-mean-even-established-musicians-cant-pay-the-rent\/\">cope financially<\/a> over the next six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not just the pandemic weighing on musician\u2019s minds, with 59% noting that they were worried by uncertainty over <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/how-brexit-might-affect-u-k-artists-looking-to-tour-in-the-eu\/\">Brexit<\/a> deals and how the future for the arts will look outside of <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/liveurope-study-young-musicians-touring-europe\/\">the EU. <\/a>There\u2019s ongoing confusion and consternation as the government has not guaranteed visa-free travel for <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/uk-touring-musicians-have-been-forgotten-in-the-brexit-deal\/\">UK musicians touring the EU.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>James Ainscough, chief executive of Help Musicians, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/music\/new-study-finds-nine-in-10-musicians-mental-health-has-deteriorated-in-the-past-year-2898540\">said:<\/a> \u201cWe can\u2019t sugar-coat these findings. We are facing a mental health crisis amongst musicians on an unprecedented scale. There is still substantial uncertainty around how quickly the music industry can recover, plus the catastrophic impact of the Brexit deal on musicians\u2019 ability to tour. After a year of hardship, the ongoing uncertainty for musicians is taking a huge toll on mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have been offering ongoing financial support to thousands of musicians throughout the pandemic, but offering money is just one part of what musicians need \u2013 we have also had to completely revamp the mental health support we offer to address this rapidly unfolding crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMusicians who cannot work don\u2019t just suffer financially, they grieve for the creativity and connections that their music usually brings. This is why we have bolstered our mental health support for musicians across the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The survey revealed that 91% of musicians agree a lack of certainty about the future has had a negative effect on their mental health, and a heartbreaking 24% were considering giving up the profession for good after weighing up the effects of the past year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even before the pandemic, musicians were disproportionately susceptible to mental health problems, with the unpredictable nature of the profession and irregular income being a factor, as well as the pressures of constantly performing. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.musicmindsmatter.org.uk\/the-study\">Back in 2016<\/a> a survey by Help Musicians discovered that 71% of respondents had experienced anxiety and panic attacks, and 68% had \u00a0experienced depression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A positive note is that with the <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/uk-government-announce-1-57-billion-in-funding-for-the-arts\/\">UK government\u2019s<\/a> roadmap out of lockdown showing the beginnings of a way out of pandemic restrictions, brighter days for musicians are coming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Music Minds Matter Helpline: <strong>0808 802 8008<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>90% of respondents to a survey by Help Musicians say their mental health has suffered over the past year with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":84432,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[13],"tags":[23921,17068,23925,23927,17150,23924,12860,12870,23922,23926,23923,23920],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.4.1 -
