10 Best Freelance Websites for Musicians

 If you thought that you need to be some sort of tech savvy to sing up to some freelance platform you were wrong, because these 10 best freelance websites for musicians that I am about to present to you will provide you the good money just for doing the thing you love: sing or play an instrument.

People tend to think that being a musician is the waste of time and talent and that this should only be a hobby. You can form a band and have some gigs on the side, but your main source of income should be some secure full-time job. The thing that most of them don’t understand is that, although gigs aren’t some real job for people older than 25, they can use their skills and knowledge to make some good money in this industry by doing some other things except these club gigs.



First of all, there is always tutoring, especially for children. Children are too young to manage to be self-thought by using different books or online lessons, which is why their parents, who are always supportive when it comes to their children taking some instrument in their own hands, are seeking for the best and most experienced people to help their children out. The truth is, they can attend some official music school, but they are too expensive in most cases and require full dedication, which is why, at least at the beginning, parents avoid them and look for some private tutor, who will teach their children in their own homes. Of course, you will be paid per a class, which isn’t too much, but most of these parents are going to recommend you to other people, which isn’t that bad for your job.

But, on the other hand, you don’t need to settle down with home visits. Besides that, you can find some long-term job in this field and the best ones that you can find are actually online jobs. And the best part of it, you don’t need to learn technical stuff. You can just apply as a composer or, again, tutor, and there is no chance that you will be left with no job invitations at all.

You see, many people count that hiring freelancers is a lot cheaper than taking even the private tutor. On the other hand, there are many freelancers on each platform and they can try each of them out for less money and pick the one that fits their need the best. And not just musicians. No matter what skill you have, you can be sure that there is someone across the world who is willing to pay you big time for your service. But we will talk about that some other time.
