Musician Aoife Scott shares her story of the past 18 months and says restrictions have shown how little Ireland values creative careers.

Aoife Scott “THE LIVE EVENTS industry” has always sounded like a very corporate way of describing what we do for a living. What I imagine when that’s mentioned is a scene where it’s run by men in grey suits, with briefcases, in corporate boardrooms trying to represent pantomime actors and festival jugglers.

I went through a hard time and suffered a bad depression like many others in the loneliness and isolation of lockdown. I’ve struggled to come out of the darkness and finally did reach out for some help. I found it really difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel when there is nothing for you to look towards. *

I have absolutely no problem being patient and doing it safely when the time is right, but being ignored and the last to return to work is no way to treat musicians and the arts. Our cultural representation of Ireland to the world is not being respected. For me – I feel forgotten, I am confused, and I am deeply hurt by the lack of communication from the minister and the department. The anxiety is at the highest level, not knowing where we stand, and when we might go back to work.
