Choosing Concert Promoter As Your Career Choice

By Christine Gray


Everyone has their own passion in life and for some individuals, music is the path they want to walk. Being a musician is not that simple even if you got the skills already. You still have to invest huge efforts to make yourself known and successful on that path. But what if, your skills are not that proficient and worst, you have no talent in singing or playing instruments at all. But your love for music is so remarkable and you think that a career on that field is the only thing you know you are good at. In that case, you might want to be a promoter for concert event management Los Angeles.

Maybe you became reluctant in pursuing what you like because of the critical judgments from people. Your skill in singing and song writing is not good. You cannot even play a single instrument so how the hell will you make it as a musician? But working in music industries does not mean that you should be a musician. People with zero skills could dive the path that they love and that just mean you still have a ticket for it.

And how will that happen? Well, do you like the thought of collaborating with some famous musicians especially those you like? Definitely. Instead of sitting at the balcony at some concerts while shouting praises to the singer who was performing, you could now step outside that seat and work closely with that artist.

And that is through being a concert promoter. Perhaps others are not familiar with this profession and no wonder about that. For sure, most individuals do not think about them anyway and will just assume that the agency of that musician are the ones behind the concerts management.

The professionals are the one who manage and do the promotion, negotiations with an agent or artist, booking for venues and several others. In other words, broadcasting and advertisement is under their tasks. They also need a collaboration and cooperation from the band or the agents. It may sound simple but the task can be tough.

If you are passionate and willing, you could overcome the difficulties. Furthermore, it contains two paths as your starting point. You might first want to work at some companies or perhaps go the independent way.

For the first path, you start from the bottom like providing flyers or posters to random people. More opportunities will come as you keep on improving. Furthermore, once you made a name, big artists will come to you and you will surely get collaborate with them.

Becoming independent or doing indie promoting is different. You instantly become the leader of the team. And since the leader is you, more responsibilities will be carried by your back. And you also should manage well and carefully with your budget. The good thing here is you could choose whoever you like to promote and also avoid those artist you dislike.

This career may be the right one for you after all. It does not need a university diploma. It only needs courage, willingness and passion to become one.
