Answer 2

Singers can make anything from nothing to millions - depending on how good they are, what connections they have to the music industry, how popular they are, etc.

An average singer making a living as a singer might make 30-50 thousand dollars a year.
That really depends on how successful you get.

First starting out, you might make no money. Generally when singers are first starting out, they need to focus on exposure. Getting people to notice them. You'll probably either need to join a band as a singer, or learn how to play a solo instrument, like guitar or piano, because it's hard to get gigs as an a Capella singer.

If you actually start getting paying gigs at bars or theaters, wherever, you'd probably make somewhere from 100 - 250 dollars. If you were in a band, probably closer to 250-500 dollars, but you'd have to split the money up amongst the band members.

If you started getting famous, you could make exorbitant amounts of money. Singers like Michael Jackson, Billy Joel, Celine Dion, Cher, people like that make/made millions of dollars.

The thing is, music is probably the one business where you can work hard, and potentially nothing will happen. If you work in an office and you work hard, you're probably going to start climbing the ranks. But the music business focuses so much on getting noticed, and it's a lot of luck. It gets even harder when you think about how many other people are trying to get noticed. And, if you do make it big, you have to pay a lot of people. Agents, roadies, all the rest.

Anyway, basically the amount of money you make depends on how popular you get.

Answer 3

How this work is it really depends on their record sales. They get paid for other things they do but really they aren't getting paid a whole lot. If they stop "working" then they won't get paid. They obviously don't get paid minimum wage but it takes time to get all that money. People say they make 10,000 a month. Not true if they don't have records out or singles they aren't getting paid.

Local singers in Cleveland Ohio on an average get paid..

Bar Singer. ( Rock Band) $ 50 to $ 100 for 4 hrs.

also depends on the number of people in the group..
It depends on whether he/she is sucuessful or not... (has a lot of people buying their albums)

If he/she isn't, they get an honest amount (like I dunno, ranging from $5.00 to $500,000+); but if they are sucuessful, they get A LOT!!!!!

Short stories short: It varies on the singer.

EX: Rihanna gets so much!

Answer 5

It really depends on whether they have a high standard or low standard record deal, record sales and whether people like the singer or band.
