Music Industry Insights Worldwide Vol 2 - Episode 2
Kirsty Macgregor

Navigating the rock music scene across the UK as a female music manager brings its own unique set of experiences and challenges, and Kirsty embodies resilience and innovation in this dynamic industry. Transitioning from a career in Digital Marketing in the Fashion and Beauty sector, Kirsty found her true calling in the music world by completing a master’s in Music Business Management at the University of Westminster.

Kirsty's journey took an exciting turn as she joined Raw Power Management, a renowned company representing some of the best rock bands in the UK and beyond. It was here that her interests and passions evolved, shifting towards artist management and career development. She honed in on the crucial aspects of Mental Health and Duty of Care, recognizing the integral role managers play in nurturing and safeguarding developing artists.

With a diverse portfolio, Kirsty has contributed her expertise to multiple label and management companies, showcasing her versatility across various music genres. Currently serving as the Social Media Coordinator for the UK electronic-rock band Enter Shikari, Kirsty has proven her adaptability in the ever-evolving landscape of the music industry.

In 2020, Kirsty embarked on her own freelance management venture, weathering the challenges of an industry undergoing significant transformation. Through her freelance work, she has actively contributed to the development of artists, guiding them through the tumultuous shifts in the music landscape.

Passionate about fostering inclusivity and creating safe spaces for women, non-binary, and LGBTQ+ individuals within the music realm, Kirsty is not just a manager but an advocate for change. Her commitment extends beyond her professional pursuits as she endeavors to create opportunities and support others within the community.

For Kirsty, managing artists who identify as women, non-binary, and LGBTQ+ is not just a career choice; it's a deliberate effort to contribute to the ongoing journey towards gender equality and equal opportunities in the music scene. Her story is one of determination, resilience, and a dedication to making the music industry a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
