About the Co-Founders:
Jerome Borazio is one of Melbourne's most successful and enigmatic hospitality entrepreneurs, as his experience in the industry is not only extensive, but wildly unique. He owned and operated his first hotel, The Wayside Inn, South Melbourne when he was just 19 years old, and has since owned a number of Melbourne's premier hospitality establishments including The Public Bar in North Melbourne, Fringe in Flemington and Soft Belly on Little Bourke Street. Jerome is also well known for creating one of Melbourne's most-loved bars, St Jerome's in Caledonian Lane. Jerome has an intimate understanding of the CBD area and a particular affection for the life and livelihood of its laneways. He is the co-founder behind the internationally recognised St. Jerome's Laneway Festival (currently in it's 10th year!), in conjunction with Chugg Entertainment.
Danny Rogers is an established music industry professional with over 20 year's experience in artist management, publishing, touring and festivals. Rogers is the Director and co-founder of Laneway Festival, now regarded as one of Australia's best contemporary music festivals. In 2014, Danny created a touring business called Laneway Presents. The touring company has successfully delivered over 120 tours for artists including Billie Eilish, Tame Impala, Florence + The Machine, and Flume. In addition to Laneway, Rogers has an artist management company, Lunatic Entertainment. The current roster includes The Temper Trap, Skeggs, Baker Boy, CHVRCHES, Mansionair, Ruby Fields, The Lazy Eyes, Cody Jon and DD. Dumbo.
