Fully updated and revised with coverage spanning the whole of the UK… plus 3 BRAND NEW SECTIONS.

The indispensable grass-roots music directory covering everything you could possibly need as a new, emerging, unsigned band or musician is back and better than ever before!

The new edition of The Unsigned Guide weighs in at a whopping 872 pages packed with essential contact information for over 11,500 music industry contacts and organisations for England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Fully researched & updated, the new edition contains masses of new industry contacts, with telephone numbers, email addresses and much more. All coupled with hugely useful hints and pointers about how to progress in the music industry, there’s information here to make the music business accessible to any band or musician. The Unsigned Guide contains listings for everyone you would ever think to call from record company A&R, management companies, radio stations, publishing companies, recording studios to press and media contacts, instrument shops, UK venues and promoters.

In addition, this brand new second UK edition also boasts 3 brand new sections for Producers, UK Festivals and Industry Conferences & Seminars. There are also some very useful forewords written by organisations such as Musicians’ Union, IFPI, MCPS-PRS Alliance and BPI, as well as contributions from Glastonbury Festival, Sunday Best Recordings & In The City. A sure fire way to help you steer your way through the music industry!!

No other music industry directory promises to be such a comprehensive resource for unsigned bands, musicians, music students or managers. If you’re serious about your music (and you live in the UK!), The Unsigned Guide UK Edition Two is undoubtedly one of the most important buys you’ll make this year. Essential, it’s as simple as that.

At a cost of £44.35! This really is a music "business"!

£44.35 does includes postage costs which for a 872 directory are quite significant. Furthermore if you check out our homepage you'll be able to see that we are considerable cheaper than other directories such as the Whitebook, Showcase and Music Week. We're also the only directory which is compiled specifically with unsigned artists in mind. We also run a free trial scheme which allows bands to try before they buy.

The library - that'd be the answer.

^ Heh. Gawd, everything comes at a price doesn't it? If they're unsigned it normally means that they've got little money. Does the price really match the outgoing costs to produce it?
Mind you, if it's a legit publication don't you have to give a number of editions to certain libraries on publication? So I guess the paupers like meself could read it in there. Well that's how it works with certain editions.
