1) Subway Musician | |||
No chance cards for this level | |||

3) Wedding Singer | |||
No chance cards for this level | |||
4) Lounge Singer | |||
Lucky break, this - a local record label has purchased the rights to two of your new songs! While it's not a boost to your career, the extra $2000 will help out around the house. | |||
5) High School Band Teacher | |||
No chance cards for this level | |||
6) Roadie | |||
No chance cards for this level | |||
7) Back-Up Musician | |||
No chance cards for this level | |||
8) Studio Artist | |||

9) Rock Star | |||
No chance cards for this level | |||
10) Celebrity Activist | |||

Job levels
Level | Name | Description | Work Time | Compensation | Performance Factors | Perks (cumulative) | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Fan | Before you can create, you must appreciate. The difference between devotee and Fan are miniscule, but it makes all the difference in the world when you’re later asked to join the band on tour. Work hard and act like you’re having a good time, and you just might get on the tour bus. |
|
|
|
None
| |||||||
2 | Roadie | The band is going to need their sandwiches and soda as soon as possible. Don’t forget to pick up their laundry, their lucky bandanas, or their significant others on your way to the show. The band is relying on you for these very “important” tasks—it’s best not to let them down. |
|
|
|
None
| |||||||
3 | Stagehand | Now that you’re on tour as a Stagehand, you’ll need to familiarize yourself with lighting equipment, sound boards, spare guitars, and most importantly, learn to do the microphone check. You’re one step closer to the band, yet still impossibly far away from the stage. |
|
|
|
None
| |||||||
4 | Band Manager | The band apparently trusts you enough to be the guiding hand behind the scenes. You’ll be instrumental in telling them what gigs to take, where to make their appearances, and what colors the t-shirts should come in. Make sure they like you, because even though you’re in charge, they still pay your salary. |
|
|
|
None
| |||||||
5 | Music Talent Scout | So, with the band having their typical drama, they need you to scout the local clubs for new talent. Who knows when they’ll need a new drummer, or bassist, or singer, or pianist, or spouse… or all of the above. Grab the guitar and start learning a few chords… you never know when you’ll need to jump on stage as a replacement. |
|
|
|
None |
After the 5th level promotion, the player is asked which path they want the Sim to take: Rock or Symphonic
Rock
Level | Name | Description | Work Time | Compensation | Performance Factors | Perks (cumulative) | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
6 | Lyricist | The band hopes your lyrics will move them from one-hit wonder to rock icons. The first album wasn’t bad, but the label says it’s now or never for the band to hit it big. Keep practicing your music skills and perform plenty of concerts so the fans can hear your best stuff. |
|
|
|
Perform concerts[1]
| |||||||
7 | Backup Vocalist | Hopefully you’re a fan of your own lyrics, because you’re now going to start singing as a Backup Vocalist. The label thinks the band needs some sweet singing to round out their rough, darker side, so once again the welfare of the group falls on your hopefully able shoulders… or should we say vocal chords? |
|
|
|
Perform concerts[1]
| |||||||
8 | Lead Guitarist | You’re a genius with a guitar, at least in the eyes of the band and your fans. Your solos speak to people in ways no lyrics ever could. Aspiring youth all attempt to learn your solos, and adults gleefully air guitar to your songs. The Rock n Roll lifestyle has begun! |
|
|
|
Perform concerts[1]
| |||||||
9 | Pop Icon | No matter what your detractors might say, you are clearly and without any doubt, a Pop Icon. Everyone is humming your tunes, and listeners constantly request them from radio stations. Your music will define this generation and all that follow, yet it’s not even time for the encore. |
|
|
|
Perform concerts[1]
| |||||||
10 | Rock Star | Without peer, [sim name] is in charge.
The most legendary concerts have your name on the ticket. The chart topping songs come from you. You’re a genius, a rebel, a Rock Star that knows nothing other than the rock, the roll, and all that comes with it. The record label hopes you’re loving the life, because they’re loving you. |

6 | Quartet Member | As a member of the renowned quartet, you have been given the chance to really learn and grow as a musician. Handle the strings with deft fingers stay within the quartet members’ good graces, and hit all the right notes to progress in this grand concert career. |
|
|
|
None
| |||||||
7 | Orchestra Member | The Conductor noticed your quartet playing at a wedding and thinks you’re better suited to the orchestra. The position implies a greater access to more wondrous scores and concerts, but also more complex and taxing performances. It appears your career has begun an exciting crescendo. |
|
|
|
None
| |||||||
8 | Orchestra Lead | You’ve fought hard, and finally the glory, the solos, and the section are yours as First Chair. You are the conductor’s right hand, the one she most trusts to get the symphony perfect. It’s time to combine what you know of musicianship and logic to prove your grasp of musical theory is unsurpassed. |
|
|
|
Free admission to all activities at the theater
| |||||||
9 | Conductor | There is an entire symphonic orchestra at the tip of your baton, just waiting for your cue to make musical masterpieces. Crowds silently wait with bated breath, just hoping to hear a once-in-a-lifetime performance. Don’t let them down, for that baton can be taken away just as easily as it was given. |
|
|
|
None | |||||||
10 | Hit Movie Composer | Without peer, [sim name] is in charge.
Having conquered the orchestral stage, the label thinks your skills are better put to use composing delightful pieces for movies on the silver screen. As a Hit Movie Composer, you work takes top billing and brings in piles of Simoleons for the label. Quite the finish, one must say! |
|
|

Career reward: 85g Audio Explosion, Hold Autograph Sessions[3] |

- ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 With the 10th level Rock career, instead of having regular hours, the player chooses when to perform concerts as long as it is between 3 PM and 11 PM. The amount a Sim receives from a concert depends on the Sim's mood, Guitar Skill, and how many times they've performed before.
