With many issues affecting musicians in the balance with the General Election tomorrow - Brexit, funding for the arts, as well as general concerns for all including health care, taxes and costs of living - it does seem that Theresa May's snap election has fallen at one of the most pivotal moments in recent years.
As such, Last Minute Musicians decided to conduct an independent survey amongst professional musicians to gauge their political persuasions and why they were planning on voting for their chosen party. Take a look at the results via the link below.
In other election based updates that will affect the arts, below you will also find links to articles on DIYMAG and Music Week; the first discussing the future of live music venues, and the second funding for the arts. All well worth a read before you head to the polling station tomorrow.
