I’ve been writing this blog nearly every day for over two years now and could have never guessed the wide variety opportunities that would come my way to help artists and industry people.
From helping artists release records, to running PR campaigns, connecting artists/writers/producers/managers, booking gigs…I’ve done a bunch of stuff.
But I’ve found a sweet spot over the last two years and I think it’s time to share it with you and invite you in…
I help artists build a great live show.
And I probably want to help build your show too.
From the big ideas and the obvious aspects of a great live show, to the tiny details that make a huge difference.
It’s been thrilling for me to work with artists’ natural instincts to direct and build something even better than they had before.
Maybe you’re next.
Now I’d like to take a minute to approach your apprehension…
Some version of…“We’re pretty good, we’re fine, we don’t need this type of thing.”
To cut to the chase…you’re wrong. Go get your three favorite artists DVD’s and scroll to the end where the credits role. Whether it’s U2, Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, Madonna and the like, you’ll see a line in the credits that says “Creative Directors”. Those are the people telling them to not use the catwalk till the 4th song, to pump their fist at the beginning of that chorus, to smile a little during the intro, to turn to the side when singing the big note.
Big artists know how important this is: someone who can WATCH the show and breathe into its unique connectivity, unique flow and unique impact.
So let me get this straight…you want to open for these mega artists, be like these mega artists and then BE a mega artist, but you don’t think you need the personnel that make those artists top tier entertainment?
The artists you love utilize someone like me.
I want YOU to have great nights. To walk off stage and know you did it. And I want your audience to have a great night when they come and see you.
I want your show to be truly amazing.
I want to help you get there.
I don’t care if you’re playing clubs or stadiums…like I said before, over the past two years (well, actually the last 10 years) I discovered live show creative direction to be a sweet spot for me…I can help and I will help.
