I don’t think we have an industry – Patchbay Band manager
The manager and band leader of Patchbay Band, Philip Acquah, has questioned the structure of Ghana’s music industry, arguing that existing institutions do not fully cater to the needs and realities of live bands.
For Patchbay Band, the challenge is not simply about being recognised as a brand, but about having an industry structure that adequately acknowledges the contribution of live bands to Ghanaian music.
The concerns form part of a broader conversation about the place of live bands within Ghana’s music industry, particularly their visibility, representation and access to opportunities.
