Hey Bandleaders! 👋 Ready to seriously level up your music business?
If you're tired of spending all your time on admin (like building setlists or booking musicians! 😩), then you HAVE to watch this.
We just dropped a brand new highlight reel from our interview with Mike Zabrin, founder of Funktastic Productions. This guy books 80-100 gigs a year, manages 150+ musicians, and guess what? He hasn't built a setlist or booked his own musicians in over 4 years! 🤯
Mike reveals how he shifted from "bandleader" to business owner by delegating, automating, and trusting his team to build a truly scalable enterprise. This is game-changing stuff!
This is just a taste of the incredible insights waiting for you at the FREE Bandleader Summit. If you want the full blueprint to a stress-free, profitable music career, make sure you register!

Hey,
I'm inviting you to a one-of-a-kind virtual event that could change your music business forever.
I've gathered 8 of the world’s most profitable bandleaders—the unsung heroes of the live music industry—and convinced them to share their exact strategies for building a stress-free music career. This is a rare opportunity to learn from their collective wisdom, based on over 100 years of combined experience in the trenches.
It’s all part of the Back On Stage Bandleader Summit, and it’s completely free.
Click the thumbnail below to watch a short video about what you’ll discover inside:
In this summit, you’ll learn:
- How to build a powerful referral network that gets you more gigs.
- How to build a dream team of "A-players" who never let you down.
- The automation secrets that save you hours of admin work every week.
The summit is a limited-time event, so you need to act fast. You'll have just 48 hours to watch all eight interviews, from 12am PDT on September 29 until 11:59PM on September 30. After that, the content disappears.
