Are you an artist or in a band that would love to get out on the road?

Touring in regional NSW offers opportunities to play new venues, develop your live performance, grow your audience and connect with other artists. But, it’s important to consider when you’ll get the most out of touring and make sure you’re ready to hit the road.

Artists, managers, promoters and others interested in touring are invited to attend this first session in a special series of Sound Advice sessions focused on touring regional NSW. Come along to learn what you should think about before touring, steps you can take to get tour-ready, and tools and information available to help you, including the MusicNSW Regional Touring Network.

The session will be led by Katie Rynne, a senior booking agent at Village Sounds and part of Secret Sounds Group which oversees Splendour In The Grass, Falls Festival, Harvest Rock Festival, Dew Process & Dew Process Publishing, and Secret Sounds Touring. Representing a roster that includes Something For Kate, Wafia, Alex Cameron, Mo’Ju, Bad//Dreems, Miiesha & Sycco, Katie spent the first eight years of her agency career at Select Music where she was the agent for The Preatures, Ziggy Alberts, Montaigne & Electric Fields amongst others, and was instrumental in their live development.

MusicNSW is working across the state to increase contemporary music touring, expand artists and industry networks, and build on existing industry knowledge in regional NSW. As part of our Sound Advice program, we are delivering six workshops to share best practices for touring regional NSW with emerging musicians and industry. These sessions will cover when to tour, budgeting, logistics, approaching venues, marketing & publicity and getting gig-ready.
