Sandra ist Songwriterin, Produzentin und Performerin. Mit ihrem Soloprojekt „Polar Noir“ tourte sie bereits an der Seite von Bands wie M83 und Cari Cari und spielte Konzerte in Deutschland, Polen, Österreich und Dänemark. Anfang 2025 veröffentlichte sie ihr Debütalbum „Coming Up For Breath“, auf dem sie verträumten, shoegazigen Synth-Pop mit Umweltthemen verbindet. Das Album verschaffte ihr weltweite Aufmerksamkeit und rotierte in den Playlisten von über 100 Radiosendern. Parallel dazu ist sie als freiberufliche Musikjournalistin, Radio- und Eventmoderatorin tätig. Seit über zehn Jahren moderiert und kuratiert sie die Musiksendung „Chelsea Hotel“ beim Münchner Radiosender egoFM, mehr als die Hälfte der Zeit leitete sie dort auch die Redaktion. Für ihre Sendung führte sie Hunderte von Interviews – u.a. mit New Order, St. Vincent, Girl in Red oder Peter Doherty. 2020 wurde sie für ihre Arbeit mit dem Deutschen Radiopreis in der Kategorie „Beste Sendung“ ausgezeichnet und von der Jury mit folgenden Worten gewürdigt: „Chelsea Hotel ist ein Kleinod, das nicht nur für Unterhaltung sorgt, sondern Lust auf eine Musikrichtung weckt, die im Radio selten zu hören ist. Sandra Gern zeigt auch, dass Musikmoderation lässig und faktenorientiert zugleich sein kann.“ Sie kennt die Musikbranche demnach aus unterschiedlichsten Perspektiven – und versteht es, ihre vielseitigen Erfahrungen und Skills nahtlos zwischen den Bereichen zu übertragen.

So how to make a good (subjective of course) living nowadays with your music? The secret is that there is not one way to succeed. You have to figure out what works for you. How to adapt both mentally and practically, and figure out how you can use your talents to make a living, and simultaneously pursue and fulfill your dream.

----------------------------------

I have been living out of music for the last 40 years, and have tried almost all fields in a constantly changing the music business as a DIY-thinking person.

Taking the starting point in my own story, I want to share with you what I have learned along the road, and I will run through what possibilities there are to get to live out of doing what you love the most, and how to put a career together so it fits YOUR personal needs and dreams.

Income aspects:

- what possibilities are there to launch a DIY music career

- what opportunities are there for musicians, producers, songwriters, artists

- what is needed to get the jobs

- what possibilities are there to develop a passive money income stream from your music

- how to co-work with the music industry as a partner

mindset aspects:

- the importance of setting goals and how to reach them

- how to focus on and work with mindsets that are supporting and motivating you to reach

your goals and dreams
