Hey fellow musicians, please help me out! 🙏

I’m a singer-songwriter from the UK, and I’m reaching out because I really, really need your help. I’m working on my MSc dissertation titled “Investigating the Impact of Social Media Platforms on Musician Reach, User-Generated Content, and Engagement: A Comparative Analysis of TikTok and Instagram.” (Yep, it’s a long one, but it’s important!)

I’ve created a short Google form, and it would mean the absolute world to me if you could take just 5 minutes to fill it out. For your convenience, I’ve included both a direct link and a QR code—use whichever works best for you!

As musicians, we all know how much social media matters for our reach and engagement. This research could actually help us all navigate platforms like TikTok and Instagram better, and I’m hoping to provide insights that will make our social media strategies more effective.

So please, if you’re a musician reading this, I’m begging you—don’t scroll past! I really need your help to make this happen. This is the most critical part of my research, and it could make a big difference for musicians like us.

Here’s the link: https://forms.gle/8GL7nsEvuQM3B12d7 
And here’s the QR code:
Thank you so, so much in advance. I can’t express how grateful I’ll be if you take a few minutes to help me out. ❤️🎶

Low-budget lyrics video for bands? Please vote

Hi Everyone, I'm a music video editor and I wanted to ask You all, in case you can't afford to pay for a music video shoot for each song you produce and want to upload them to YouTube, would you pay for a lower cost lyrics (mood) video for your songs edited from stock footage (without featuring you)?

Thank you in advance for your replies. You can check out my portfolio via the link in the comments.

Music on Social Media Survey

Hi everyone! My name is Chloe and I have a fictional music group under the name Lee Lee World. I am from Bedford :))

I have a survey related to my university project connected to LLW asking about social media and other ways of connecting with your favourite music artists and I would really appreciate any responses. It should only take about 5 mins and are quick and simple questions. It would really help me out a lot :))

Please click here.

Speak to you all soon!
