With tour management a role that people often fall into without any experience – indeed, most bands never reach the point of being able to afford one - it’s often left to the manager, or the least badly-organised member of the band to take care of touring business. More than most, this is a vocation that needs someone with the right characteristics.
The Road To Tour Management debunks the myths and lays bare the dos and don’ts of effective tour management, from accounting, advancing, merchandising and sound engineering, through to international touring and festivals, border controls, visas and dealing with customs declarations.
Designed as a much-needed best-practice roadmap for tour management, this course draws on Inglis’ two decades of experience in the live sector as tour manager (most recently Savages), artist manager (2014 Mercury Music Prize-nominated East India Youth) and respected co-creator and manager of London venue, The Luminaire.
