Music

Whether you’re an established artist or just starting out, a solo performer, band, producer, or sound engineer – we’re here to support you.

We’ll work closely with your lawyers, management company, and agents both in the UK and internationally to ensure your finances are handled smoothly and efficiently. With us managing the numbers, you can focus on what really matters: making and enjoying your music.

We are detailed driven

If you’re a musician, your income might come from performances, session work, busking, teaching, or sales of CDs and digital downloads—and your expenses could include valuable instruments, clothing, and travel.

If you’re a sound engineer, you might work in studios or on tour, incurring costs for travel, equipment, and technical supplies.

Whatever your role, we’ll ensure that all income and expenses are properly accounted for, helping you stay compliant while maximising your allowable deductions.

Whatever the nature of your income, we’ll ensure that everything is accurately accounted for and fully compliant – giving you complete confidence in your financial affairs.

Always by your side

Our experienced accountants will ensure you always pay the correct amount of tax—no more, no less—and avoid any unexpected surprises.

We’ll also advise you on the most effective global tax structure to minimise both your personal and corporate tax liabilities, while ensuring full compliance with UK and international regulations.

Protecting your hard work

We’ll help you enjoy your success by handling your financial affairs, so you can stay focused on your work.

We can’t promise to make you rich—but we can help you keep as much of your hard-earned income as possible. And that, surely, is music to your ears.

Committed to your success

Here are just a few of the challenges you might face… and how we can help:

If you’re self-employed, we’ll assess whether your income qualifies as trading income – potentially allowing you to claim a wider range of expenses—and ensure that your tax is correctly calculated and paid through the self-assessment system.
If you’re employed, our experts will make sure the correct amount of tax is deducted at source by your employer, so you remain fully compliant without any surprises.
In both cases, we’ll also advise you on the full range of tax deductible expenses you can claim—helping to reduce your overall tax bill and keep more of what you earn.
With Sirius, you’ll have a dedicated tax accountant who will optimise your tax affairs – giving you complete peace of mind.
Even if you’re working on multiple contracts across the UK and abroad, we’ll ensure that you only pay the tax you owe. The UK has Double Taxation Treaties with many countries, and we’ll help you take full advantage of them to minimise your international tax burden.
When reporting your gross income, don’t deduct your agent’s commission or VAT – we can make a separate claim for these costs on your behalf.
If you’re considering using simplified expenses under the new cash basis, be aware that this could limit your ability to offset losses against other income and may restrict the expenses you can claim. We’ll guide you through the best approach for your situation.
