Want to start a band? Read our new guide to getting your show on the road in 2019.

If you’re a lone bedroom musician armed only with an instrument and a dream, a New Year's resolution to start a band could be one of the most rewarding things you do in 2019. But how do you get started?

To help, Cambridgeshire Music is releasing a brand new guide to starting a band, which is free to download and aimed at teenagers who are thinking of setting up their own musical outfit. It features contributions from Nick Mulvey - a successful singer-songwriter who grew up in Cambridgeshire and took lessons with Cambridgeshire Music - and Ross Wilson, who runs Cambridgeshire Music's School of Rock & Pop.

Whether you're into rock, pop, folk, jazz, metal, dance, or another style altogether, it's full of information about things like how to find bandmates, get your band organised, make the most of rehearsals, get gigs and even start making money.
