About

This workshop will examine the specific challenges facing artists within this ever-changing genre. As venues become scarcer, it is essential that players understand how to diversify. In this workshop, veteran jazz artist and impresario Cory Weeds we look at promoting shows, building tours, finding other gigs, working as session musicians, identifying your niche, making and releasing records, and marketing yourself.
