I Like Music Because heading
  • Chuck, Simple PlanChuck, Simple Plan: ilikemusic because... It was always a way to escape whatever problems I was going through; whatever trouble I had, I could just put on a record or a song and feel better right away and I hope that our music can have the same effect on our fans.

  • Sam, Get Cape Wear Cape FlySam, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly: ilikemusic because... Music is a special thing that is not like anything else in the world. You might argue that you can translate emotions through films and through books but anyone can make music, whether that be humming or singing along to the radio, it’s something that gives enjoyment and positivity to many people.
  • JunJun: ilikemusic because... music can convey a mood, enhance a mood or change a mood. Music can be used to inspire and the artform is simple yet complicated. It's fun to listen to and even more fun to create and perform. It speaks when just a simple word can't. It's a blessing!!

WOMAD's Paula Henderson Chats To I Like Music


ILM: Your job sounds absolutley incredible! How did you get involved with WOMAD? What would be your advice for people looking to do something similar?

Paula: They are few and far between! I am very lucky! I do appreciate the fact that I am so lucky in what I do! I think the main thing is to try and get along to festivals so you can really get a feel for it. Volunteer to go and do the litter picking. Volunteer to go and help where and when you can. Then you can begin to work your way into organisation. People do have to put a lot of effort into doing that. I came in and started as the office junior. I was answering the telephone and everything. I just kept working at it and got a taste of it. I was very lucky with WOMAD because they do allow you to expand and find out where your strengths are. Now I'm in the enviable position of Programmer! You find lots of people doing various things, Press and Marketing or VISA's. There are so many areas involved with this, a lot of boring elements too! But, when you finally see the event take place, that's when you know it has all been worthwhile!
