Most musicians \"\"dream of being on the open road; the wind in your hair while you travel from city to city. Touring is exciting AND is the main way musicians are making money these days<\/a>. But uh, you know you have to actually book dates and plan months in advance, right?<\/p>\n

In Episode 007<\/span><\/a> we chat with Eddie Young<\/strong><\/span><\/a> of Roots and Soul Music Promotions<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Eddie has booked tours for acts like Jared Lutes, Adyn Townes, Eastcoast Love Story, and The Vaudevillian, just to name a few. He’s also the primary booker for various venues in the GFA (Greater Fredericton area), most notably Grimross Brewing Co<\/span><\/a>. Eddie talks about the important information that must be included in your pitch to a venue, the overlooked costs of touring, but also reassures that you *can* actually make a profit while on the road, you just have to be organized and properly plan.
