Music fans discover their favourite band at - 13

500 parents and music listeners took part in TickPick survey, which looked into how parents influenced the music taste of their children. 64% of parents said they attempted to influence the music their child enjoys, and just a slightly smaller portion of parents (58%) were concerned with the appropriateness of the music their children listen to. Children were exposed to explicit music at 12,5 years old, and first heard their future favourite band at 13. Ten following factors are the most important in determining a young music fan’s taste: radio, movies, father, mother, friends, siblings, TV, concerts and festivals, social media, and finally hobbies and interests.
