MPs are suggesting changes to live music restrictions for small venues.
MPs are attempting to give young musicians a boost by relaxing the rules on live music performances, which have been in place for five years.
The Culture Media and Sport select committee says small venues and pubs should not have to apply for the live music license, making it easier for them to hold gigs.
MPs in the group, which is lead by Conservative MP John Whittingdale, says the Licensing Act 2003 has hampered performances, especially for "young musicians" adding that even those wanting to play to small audiences have been restricted.
Mr Whittingdale added that often small venues or pubs are where young musicians get their first break.
Also as part of the plans, the committee want a form which promoters have to fill out before a gig to be scrapped.
Big names have joined the campaign, with Undertones singer Feargal Sharkey saying it is "vital that tomorrow's superstars and young musicians have somewhere to play their craft".
Andy Burnham, secretary of state for culture, media and sport, has recently been visiting one of the schemes the government set up to encourage young music talent in the UK.
