How we help

The life of a musician is rich and rewarding, we know that to be true. But we also know that in this fast-paced, hyper-connected world with social media and high expectations, not to mention having a family and social life to balance out work, it can be hard to carve out the time to create in a truly peaceful environment. Add to this the ever-present need to sort your accounts, it’s a wonder you have any time left to thrive creatively at all!

That’s why we at Caroola specialise in helping musicians like yourself stay on top of their accounting needs. Partnering with us means you have one less thing to worry about in your daily work life, as we’re here to provide the tailored musician accounting services you need to simplify your financial management.

Financial strategies

Effective tax management can make all the difference to your well-earned income. We assess your individual situation, identify eligible tax reliefs, and devise a strategy that minimises your liabilities while maximising allowable expenses. Working with experts like us ensures you stay HMRC compliant, despite having several types of income coming in, as is often the way for musicians. For example, you may earn money from gigs, writing and selling music, or perhaps even have another job while music is more of a side-hustle. We can help you track your expenses and work out what you owe, enhancing your overall financial position.

Expert accountancy guidance for

musicians

We aim to take the stress out of all financial matters by helping you take care of tax regulations, expense tracking, financial reporting, and compliance requirements. The best part? We’ll do it without using any jargon or overly complex language - just clear, honest, expert advice. What’s more, all of our accountancy packages include FreeAgent software, an easy-to-use bookkeeping tool that allows you to track and manage your expenses online. This makes it the perfect cloud-based solution for accessing your accounts from anywhere, ideal for musicians living a flexible lifestyle that requires you to work at untraditional hours, on the go, or from several different locations!
