So, the holiday season is coming up and you need to find a thoughtful gift for the musician in your life. I love a practical gift, but the tricky part is finding the balance between a gift that they would use and one they haven't already gotten for themselves. So, here are some gift ideas that would be beneficial to any musician and show your musical loved-ones that you care!
$1 - $10
Made by our friends at the "Things Musicians Don't Talk About Podcast," these stickers are a great reminder that none of us our perfect, and we don't need to be!
$10 - $50
A fun, practical gift for any wind players in your life! These cloths come in a variety of designs, so you can pick out a thoughtful pattern that you know they'll love. These polishing cloths go for $13 on the Flute Center of New York website!
The Ultimate Music Business Summit is a 3-day virtual conference with 30+ presentations on practical skills needed to thrive in the music industry. It's a great investment into any musician's career, as well as a fun time and networking opportunity. Regular tickets go for $37 and student tickets are just $17!
A beautiful journal to guide a musician's practice sessions. Learn about the philosophy of creator of this journal, Dr. Susanna Klein, in Episode 20 of the Creative Baggage Podcast! The journal retails 1 for $21, 2 for $38, and 3 for $45!
$50 - $100
