There's plenty of "working musicians" not in the industry: playing gigs in jazz clubs, at weddings. If you're a composer or a songwriter, you can find work in films and TV and commercials (lots of ad agency work to go around), or become an in-house composer at a stock music house, or another production staff, like a game studio!

If you try to find stardom, you won't succeed.

I like this answer. There’s more musicians who aren’t well known, but doesn’t mean they’re out of work.

I have much respect for session musicians... probably the most talented type of musician
