Music Promoter As Your Selected Career

By Kevin Cox


Every human being has their own style of music. Some may like classical. Others may be into pop and jazz. While other people jam with rock. Despite the different genre of songs, you cannot argue that music usually connects people. As a result, some aspire to become a singer to express their own love of music. However, not all people are talented enough to sing and achieve the perfect pitch. No worries with that because they can still walk to that musical path by being a concert promoter.

Once individuals find some bands that are so addicting, they cannot stop themselves on becoming their fans. And for sure before they sleep at night, others would tend to daydream and imagine themselves working alongside their favorite rock stars like Avril Lavigne, Hayley Williams or perhaps Billie Joe Armstrong. Seeing their live performances is already a blessing to their eyes and ears. But have you wondered as well on how their shows were made?

Perhaps you have heard about music promoters before or maybe you never did. Most people think that concerts were being set up by the companies or label coming from the artists or perhaps the band itself. But actually, music promoters are the one who do those tasks. That person handles the promotions, negotiates with the agents or the band, books the venue, etc.

Obviously, they made the concerts of those bands known to the public. That way, those fans as well as non-fans will come to the show. In addition, they also need some collaborations and cooperation with the agents and the venues that would be used for the live performance. This career is certainly perfect for those individuals who want to dive in music career. Nevertheless, it does not require you some college degree too.

To begin that career, you have to choices to select. The first choice is working on the promotion companies. There are many companies out there that are established and they can allow you also to collaborate with those famous musicians.

However, it might still take some time to become a lead promoter as you have to start from the basics like giving out flyers to random people. Other than that, you also might be working with some artists you cannot tolerate with. But once you reached the top, more artists will surely come to you to do a promotion.

The second one is called Indie Promoting. Basically, you just have to find some local bands you like and negotiate with them in doing promotions. Aside from that, you are now the leader of this path with lots of responsibilities on your back.

Despite the freedom you get, it comes with many responsibilities too. Unlike being affiliated with established companies, your money will be put into risks if ever you made some wrong decisions. And if the band you had been promoting turns into a flop, your investment will surely be lost. Be sure to have some knowledge about marketing and business and also good social skills to survive on this.

Your love for songs and melodies will certainly not perish in this career. In fact, no need for college degree to attain this. So are you ready to become one now?
