About

Steven Himmelfarb is the booking agent for over 25 of some of the hippest and busiest pop, rock and roots touring artists. Find out how Steven plans and builds an artist's tour, including wrestling with routing, picking a promoter, and finagling a fee. Steven will discuss how he keeps on top of his contacts, decides what fees to ask for in what markets, and builds tours that make sense. This workshop will provide invaluable insight for anyone booking their own tours, for artist managers developing a touring plan for their act, and for aspiring and beginning booking agents.



The artists that Steven represents include The Acorn, Final Fantasy, Born Ruffians, Great Lake Swimmers, Basia Bulat, Cadence Weapon, Hayden, Ohbijou, Thunderheist, Beirut, Cuff the Duke, Hidden Cameras, Plants and Animals, Tokyo Police Club, Elliott Brood, and more.
