Music fans being priced out of seeing acts due to high ticket prices
"And then you know, amidst all of that, we've got an oversupply, still, of gigs and festivals that have been held over from 2020 and 2021 happening in 2022, often at prices set in 2019, but with 2022 costs."Next Door Records in west London is a record store by day, and a live music venue by night.
Throughout the week, they host live music events open to everyone - week-on-week, they are seeing their audiences grow. "It's so important to be able to put on free events as it allows people to still go and see musicians. Jordan Kelly told Sky News:"I've noticed a lot of bigger artists, potentially Americans who've come from across the pond, their ticket prices have been a lot more expensive and it really puts me off."
