Hey. I’m Bobby Herron
I’ve worked several sides of the music-making world. I’ve promoted and propelled my own bands and performed hundreds of shows across Canada, through the States and in Europe.
I spent a few years working for Spinner Records in Vancouver, a company specializing in licensing, distributing and releasing CDs.
For several years I was stage crew coordinator at a music festival.
For more than ten years, I’ve been producing, programming, and promoting festivals and events in the Comox Valley, a region known for it’s live music.
As an Artistic Director, my job is to find musical artists who’ll lend their unique brand of music, performance, and pizazz to to our events and have people walk away with an experience that in some way enhances their lives.
My job also involves systems, contracts, communications and negotiations.
How I pursue and decide on the artists I make an offer to, and what kind of process is to follow, is what I intend to reveal to you in this short course designed to give you the knowledge and resources you’ll need to get the gigs that are right for your band, act or project.
