Steps on Organizing a Music Concert


How to produce a successful music concert?

A lot of people depend on talent to develop a great music concert.  I think that is a great start.  However, other skills come into play when organizing a concert performance.  To produce a product means that you must supply a tangible idea to the consumer.  The live performance industry creates a since of importance to the artist.  Most beginning artist don’t generate a lot of funds as far as salary goes.  However, many go into the business unaware of sacrifices needed for this journey.  So booking an artist for a live performance is a big part of their salary (Typical pay).

Production directors will search for the artist that audiences would enjoy in that demographic area.  In order to successful book an artist, it is important to first to figure out what type of music concert you want to produce and start looking for an appropriate venue.  If you don’t already have an artist in mind, look up different artist that will be in town and schedule a concert around their tour.  It’s more affordable to book an artist that is already in town rather someone that’s coming specifically for that event.  

You would then get in contact with that artist or its manager and discuss their budget.  If their request doesn’t exceed your budget, follow up with them by giving details about the venue.  By this time, you should already have tickets prices, venue budget, and many more back and forth details. 

Connecting and networking with different artists will develop the recourses needed to come up with a great performance.  Every artist wants an opportunity to get experience and perform on stage so networking is a plus.  The key of success in planning a music concert is connecting with great talent.
