AN INTRODUCTION TO ARTIST MANAGERS
Artist managers guide the professional growth of musicians and handle all the business aspects of their creative life. In this session, we will be taking a closer look at some of their core responsibilities as well as how artist-manager relationships are forged.
Whether you are an artist looking for management or an aspiring industry professional interested in this pathway, this session will help you on your way to making your next career step. We will cover:
– Do I need a manager as an upcoming artist?
– What an artist manager can help you with
– How to get a manager
– Finding the right fit
– How artist/manager relationships are structured – contacts and splits, commissions
There will also be a Q&A at the end of the workshop with a chance to ask some questions of your own.
