Podcasts about gigs

This week Andrew talks with kids music superstar Laurie Berkner. Laurie's songs have been streamed over 1.7 billion times and People magazine called her “the queen of kids' music”. In this conversation, Laurie shares a behind-the-scenes look at her extraordinary journey — from her early days juggling late-night cover band gigs and kids birthday parties to ultimately performing at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, & the White House. Laurie opens up about her creative process, how she built her music career from the ground up, & the raw emotions of connecting generations through music. This episode will inspire you to follow your passions, try new things, & do whatever it takes to break through.** Follow Andrew **Instagram: @AndrewMoses123X: @andrewhmosesSign up for e-mails to keep up with the podcast at everybodypullsthetarp.com/newsletterDISCLAIMER: This podcast is solely for educational & entertainment purposes.

Most creators think that when God inspires you to start a creative project, success is just around the corner. They're sorely mistaken.After starting God and Gigs, I (Allen) almost lost this podcast in 2017 — five months dark, no way back online. Now, 400 episodes later, I'm sharing the real story behind how this podcast made it through the early obstacles, and the three things that kept me going. Press play if you are a faith-fueled creative who is questioning if you should stick with your dream when nothing seems to be shifting in your favor.Send us a message!No More Promoting Alone - Learn How To Make Your Best Customers Your Best Sales Team!

Send us Fan MailWhen we think of gigs, we usually think of musical performances. But, there are other types in the world today, like with the gig economy. What does the Bible say about them? Let's talk about that on today's podcast!Support the show

Show Notes There is a version of the music career that gets written about, and there is the version that gets played. Frankie Raye lives in the second one. She performs six or seven nights a week across the greater Tampa Bay area, mixes covers with originals depending on what the room wants, and treats the gig itself as the practice session. She points at old video of herself and measures the distance she has traveled, not against a chart position, but against her own playing. That volume changes how craft works. Frankie Raye does not describe herself as a guitar player. She describes herself as a singer whose guitar carries her voice, and she is direct about the shortcuts that make a set possible: capo up, transpose on the phone, skip the bridge if the chords are ugly, come back to the chorus. The room is singing along to the chorus anyway. What sounds like a confession is closer to a working method, and the results are visible over 12 years of professional performing. Her songwriting has flipped in the past few years. Frankie Raye used to build the music first and squeeze lyrics into it. Now the hook arrives first, often from a conversation or a road sign, and lives in her phone until a riff comes along that fits. A song she is recording this year began as a complaint about venues that want maximum energy on a minimum budget. Another began as a poem written from the passenger seat on a drive south. She performs that one, "Wasting Time," live during the episode. On artificial intelligence she is unambiguous. Frankie Raye does not use it for music, and her objection is not about quality but about origin and consequence: the material was written by people, and the person who could have been hired to write a song for a friend was not hired. That position leads somewhere unexpected. If machine-generated tracks are charting, she reasons, then chasing that sound is chasing something that no longer rewards a human for reaching it. So she stopped. She writes what she wants and releases what she wants, and she has decided against the label path she once wanted, choosing instead a following small enough to know by name. The measure she offers at the end of the conversation is not streams or signings. It is 50 people who bought tickets because they wanted to be in the room. That is a quieter ambition than the industry usually rewards, and it may be the only one currently under an artist's own control.

Roger Harrison leads the Harrison Jazz Ensemble out of Tampa Bay — and he's booked over $300,000 in gigs through BookLive in just the last few years, with a career total likely approaching $1 million. But the wildest part isn't the number. It's how he scales: Roger books jazz combos in cities he's never even visited, hiring local musicians who've never met each other, because jazz has a shared "canon" that lets strangers sit down and play a full gig together with zero rehearsal. In this episode, Roger and Jared dig into: Why jazz combos are uniquely "plug and play" across cities — and how Roger builds bands out of musicians he's never met The manila-folder-on-the-desk follow-up system Roger used for years (and what replaced it) Why corporate and wedding gigs are "where the gold is" — and how to spot a client who can't actually afford you before you waste time on the call How Roger 2–3x'd his solo gig rates (from $150 → $350 → $800+) just by scaling up the *type* of gig, not his chops Using Viktor, BookLive's AI agent, to run an automated outreach sequence to event planners — and land a warm reply without lifting a finger The mindset shift behind "10x Is Easier Than 2x" and why underpricing is a bigger risk than most musicians realize Roger's also one of the first names invited into BookLive's new Gold Record Mastermind — a high-level group for musicians who've hit at least $100K booked through the platform.

Singer-songwriter Lily Allen has responded to criticism on Twitter surrounding her new tour, which sees her perform her album ‘West End Girl' in full. The problem people have is with the lack of a supporting act, and the show being about an hour in length.So, what should you expect when paying out the nose for a gig? And have you been to any disappointing shows?Joining Seán to discuss is Journalist Pat Carty.

Episode 128 (June 26, 2026)Season 3 of the only podcast to feature nothing but music from Prince Edward Island artists went out with the biggest bang - a live show at Charlottetown's infamous venue, the Trailside Music Hall! This supersized show was taped live June 23. 2026, and a portion of the proceeds went to The Cooper Institute (cooperinstitute.ca), which advocates for democracy and human rights locally. It's not too late to contribute: you can send e-transfers to amj@isletunes.ca.Performing live were musicians from the full range of the Island's music scene: PEI Black history bluesman Scott Parsons, Francophone vocalist Paula Arsenault, world-renowned fiddler Richard Wood, Mexican-born guitarist for Lefunk and The Soosh Nico Romero, Mi'kmaq rapper Jay Diss, and Karen Pyra from blues duo Aging Disgracefully.Accompanying these artists were Paul Broadbent, Brent Chaisson, Luka Hall, Joceline LeBlanc, Sean Mooney, and Em Peters. Host Adam-Michael James even presented a couple of his own songs, including "We WIll Not Comply", a brand-new track written to speak out against fascism.What a way to end a season! isletunes is all genres.

This week you start things off digging into the craft that separates good gigs from great ones. You’ll get the playbook for prepping and surviving sub gigs, learn (again!) why a splitter snake earns its place in your rig, and sort through the real options when you need a mic mute switch that actually works. Then you wrestle with a question every working band faces today: are fan-posted videos helping your brand or hurting it? It’s the kind of practical, in-the-trenches breakdown that reminds you to Always Be Performing, whether the camera’s rolling or not. Then guest co-host Jesus Hernandez joins, and you trace his path from a Portastudio kid to the engineer bands trust with their sound, along with the philosophy he’s built along the way: you’re serving people’s ears, and the console is your instrument. You’ll hear why you should ask a band what they want to sound like before you touch a fader, why learning to mix yourself turns your engineer into a producer, and how routing a digital mixer keeps everything simple when the power flickers. He shares the gear that’s earned his trust, hard-won war stories from the road, his time subbing as a bass player in Nashville, and life on tour with a Phil Collins and Genesis tribute. By the end you’ll be listening to your own gigs with sharper ears and a hungrier inner critic. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 539 – Monday, June 22nd, 2026 June 22nd: National Chocolate Éclair Day Guest co-host: Jesus Hernandez 00:01:32 Prepping for and playing Sub Gigs Ultimate-Guitar's Pro Charts…now with lyrics! 00:04:25 The benefits of splitter snake Listener Questions 00:09:55 Mark-What's the best MD Mic Switch?

Most UX professionals spend years trying to be good at everything. Eric Shumake, founder of HXR Labs, spent 20 years getting really good at one thing and it kept opening doors he didn't expect.Eric is a principal UX researcher and a well-known voice in healthcare UX. His career has taken him through companies like Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, Myriad Genetics, and AliveCor.He also teaches, including a popular course on Maven on breaking into healthcare UX, and has been exploring how AI can meaningfully (and responsibly) augment research without replacing the judgment that makes research trustworthy.In this episode, Eric and Sarah cover a lot of ground: how specializing almost always beats generalizing, what surprises people when they try to bring standard UX practices into clinical environments, why Eric thinks of every role as a gig, and what he'd prioritize if he were managing someone's job search like a product.Topics Discussed✅ Why specializing beats generalizing and how to niche down even when it feels risky✅ How transferable skills work in practice: why experience in one highly regulated industry (like finance) can open doors in another (like healthcare) ✅ The biggest blind spot people bring into healthcare UX✅ Why "recommendations are where insights go to die" and how to tie research to decisions and numbers so stakeholders actually act on it✅ Treating every role as a gig and why that mindset is more practical than it sounds in today's job market✅ Why posting consistently on LinkedIn is one of the highest-leverage things a UX professional can do in a job search right now✅ Where AI genuinely helps in UX research (desk research, competitive analysis, automating the time-consuming parts) and where to draw a hard line✅ What neurodivergence in the workplace looks like from the insideduring a job searchLinks & Resources

Career / Process You broke in around 2006, and you're now pushing close to two decades in comics. How has your approach to storytelling changed from those early years to now? You've been at this for nearly 20 years at this point. What's something you understand about comics today that you wish you knew when you started? You're writing across multiple major franchises right now. How do you shift your voice between something like Superman, Iron Man, and G.I. Joe? On top of all this, you wrote a story in Creepshow Vol. 4 #5 titled Artificial Ignorance. Was that a story you had in a drawer, or…how did that come to be? Superman / Superboy-Prime Superboy-Prime has always been a volatile character, but here he feels almost desperate to prove himself. How do you balance his edge with making him someone readers want to follow? With Manchester Black entering the picture, what excites you about putting those two characters in conflict specifically? Any Superman elements/tropes you want to touch? Iron Man You've said Tony Stark is one of your favorite characters. What's something about Tony that you feel hasn't been explored enough in past runs? Madame Masque and A.I.M. feel like they're operating at a higher level here. What makes them the right villains for this phase of the story? Universal Monsters: Blood of the Wolf Man Do you have a favorite Universal Monsters adaptation? Do you have any favorite werewolf stories? This feels like a very grounded, almost psychological take on the Wolf Man. What drew you to that angle? Is the when of this story important to the overall experience? What makes the Wolf Man a character worth revisiting right now? Rapid Fire Question Round (Stolen from Stephen Colbert so that a guest is “known”): Best sandwich? What's one thing you own that you really should throw out? Apples or oranges? What is the scariest animal? Have you ever asked someone for their autograph? What do you think happens when we die? Favorite action movie? Favorite smell? Least favorite smell? Flat or sparkling? Most used app on your phone? If you could have dinner with any three characters you've written before, who would they be and why? You get one song to listen to for the rest of your life: what is it?

In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro climb aboard one of America's most infamous haunted railroad relics: The Death Coach. After a devastating 1943 train collision near Wayland, New York, passengers who survived the impact found themselves trapped inside a railcar filled with superheated steam. The horrifying tragedy claimed dozens of lives and left behind a passenger coach that still exists today. Visitors, volunteers, and paranormal investigators claim the coach is haunted by footsteps, voices, screams, and shadowy apparitions connected to one of the most disturbing railroad disasters in American history. Then the journey takes a very different turn with the mysterious medieval carvings known as Sheela na Gigs. Found on churches, castles, and ancient structures throughout Ireland and the British Isles, these strange stone figures have puzzled historians for centuries. Were they warnings against lust? Protective symbols meant to ward off evil? Survivals of ancient fertility traditions? Or something else entirely? The answer remains one of history's most enduring mysteries. From ghostly railroad legends and historical tragedies to medieval symbolism, forgotten folklore, and the strange ways humans assign meaning to the past, this episode explores the places where history, mystery, and the unexplained collide. This Box contains: The Death Coach, haunted trains, railroad disasters, Wayland train wreck, paranormal history, ghost stories, Sheela na Gig, medieval mysteries, Irish folklore, ancient symbols, haunted locations, strange history, and unexplained phenomena. Because the world is stranger than fiction. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jeff Celentano has spent 30+ years in the music industry — performing on the Vegas Strip, running touring tribute bands, and working with names like Grant Cardone and Alex Hormozi. In this episode, he shares how he thinks like a Broadway producer instead of a band member, why musicians should 'Disneyfy' their performances, and the sales philosophy that books high-end gigs without pressure tactics.

“Song is just a piece of art, and it's kind of like a landscape painting is a piece of art. It is reflective of the landscape, but in no way can it take in the full majesty of the landscape. It's just a picture of it, and it should inspire us to want to examine the real thing.” – Michelle Nezat Today's featured fellow bookcaster is a wife, mom, speaker, passionate Bible teacher, and coffee lover, Michelle Nezat.

Eigentlich regnet es in Barcelona um diese Jahreszeit ja nur selten – und doch fiel der Start des Megafestivals ins Wasser. Zwar wurden Ponchos verteilt, trotzdem fielen zahlreiche Gigs aus. Doch dem Musikgenuss tat das keinen Abbruch. Was nehmen wir vom Startschuss in den Festivalsommer mit? Im Gegensatz zum grossen Pop-Feuerwerk der letztjährigen Ausgabe mit Carpenter, Roan und XCX waren die Pop-Girls am Primavera Sound dieses Jahr eher rar gesät – bis auf eine Ausnahme: Ohne Vorankündigung und ohne auf dem Line-up zu stehen, tauchte Olivia Rodrigo am Samstag auf und gab in einem Surprise-Gig einen Vorgeschmack aufs kommende Album. Inklusive Kurzauftritt von und Weltpremiere mit Robert Smith... ...der natürlich bereits am Tag zuvor im Einsatz war. Das 2,5-Stunden-Marathonset von The Cure gehörte zu den strahlenden Höhepunkten der diesjährigen Ausgabe – zusammen mit überzeugenden Gigs von The xx, Big Thief, Baxter Dury und vielen mehr. Nur bei Kneecap wollte der Funken nicht so ganz überspringen. Und ob die zahlreichen Influencerinnen und Influencer, die von Haarprodukte- und Jeansmarken-Sponsoren ans Festival eingeflogen wurden, nun ebenfalls zum festen Inventar gehören? Auch das muss natürlich diskutiert werden.

Sieben Alben, internationale Gigs, immernoch Schreiner und Kellnerin: Widowspeak wollen sich das Leben in New York City leisten und dabei unabhängig vom musikalischen Erfolg leben. «Nur so bekommt die Band den nötigen Raum, sich frei zu entwickeln.» Das neue Album beweist, dass das Konzept aufgeht.

They break down the Purple Cow theory and what it actually means to stand out as a DJ or producer in 2025.
