Music Business Conferences form an integral part of a typical booking agent’s calendar. They provide an opportunity for agents to meet talent buyers face to face, show-case artists, learn from industry leaders and generally have a good time away from home. Fun it may be, but it is still very much work!

The contract particulars are different for each show. They define the main points of the contract which apply to a specific performance in a specific place. They may seem self-explanatory, but that is not always the case; here we consider each in turn.

In today’s blog, I briefly describe three real-life ticketed virtual events that we have going on at Midnight Mango. Each one follows a different model. Each one is viable and will make an income for the artist, promoter, venue and agent.

The new technology which allows streaming is innovative. However, we need innovation in the way it is put to use to really exploit its full potential. In this blog, I discuss another new idea of how broadcasting and receiving can be used by venues.

It’s a real special occasion to go and see your artist perform live. Streamed live concerts will never replace that entirely, but they have already become another offering the artist can deliver to their fans. Here I argue agents have an important role to keep the “Special” in “Occasion”!
