Jordyn Richards is fighting to make her mark as an independent artist in Sydney’s tough live music scene.

Her songs have been played on Triple J, and she has also worked with Australian Producer ÉTIENNE, amassing tens of thousands of streams for her work, as well as booking gigs working at local music hotspots to pre-shows at the Sydney Harry Styles concerts. She is also a Samsung UNDSCVRD artist, which allowed her to work with The Veronicas.

But making a living in the music business is tough. An independent artist, Richards talks to Central News about how she navigates her day-to-day in an industry that is fighting against her.
