Bruce Houghton – Touring 101
With income related to live performances accounting for 60-80 percent of most artists’ income, never has it been more important for musicians to build and sustain a touring career. This course is designed to teach you how to do just that.

- Outline the history and importance of performing live, and put that knowledge to work, building a career in music
- Create the building blocks of a successful live performance career, including online and offline branding, creating a memorable live show, and structuring a band and a business that supports it

- Market each show and build a community of loyal and supportive fans
