Pick a show you want to open for and find the flyer posted on social media. The promoter is almost always tagged, reach out to them professionally. If you can’t find them, reach out to anyone else that may be connected to the show and ask them.
BRING VALUE. This is the most important step. Promoters aren’t going to let you open out of the kindness of their hearts, they need something in return. Make it clear how you opening would benefit the show. Can you bring extra people? Do you have large reach online? It needs to be worth it on their end, so think from their point of view.
Make sure to stay consistent. You won’t get every slot and that’s normal. Keep reaching out and keep improving. Relationships in this space build over time, and the artists who stick around are the ones who win.
I’m just getting started throwing shows and still have so much to learn. Follow me if you want to keep up with my journey!
