Facts About the Music Industry
The Australian music industry enjoys significant public and private investment, and generates substantial revenues from earned income. Over half of the Live Performance Industry’s income is generated from ticket sales, and 18% is provided by government funding. Additionally, commercial companies invest in popular artists, providing support through sponsorship, philanthropy, and licensing. Increasingly, crowd-funding is an innovative way to raise money for music. The Music industry has a long and rich history, spanning more than four thousand years.
The Georgia music industry has seen a long and distinguished history. Famed musicians have come from the state, including the Atlanta Rhythm Section, the B-52s, and the Black Crowes. Other notable Georgian artists include renowned country stars Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean, and the contemporary Christian group, Mother’s Finest. The group’s success is attributed to its pioneering spirit, which has produced award-winning musicians across several genres.
