Why Lights are Important for Local Bands

Concert venues like Fitgerald’s in Houston, TX, or Kingdom in Richmond, VA, and any number of other clubs are equipped with awesome lighting rigs that local bands have access to when they perform. Sadly, a lot of clubs out there don’t specifically have an employee designated to run them during a show. On the plus side, however, most lights are fairly easy to operate, and if a band has a friend willing to run them, he or she can learn to in just a few minutes.

Small Venues and Independent Promoters Working Together

Over the past few years, independent promoters and concert clubs have started to work more closely together than they ever have before. One example of this is Studio Seven in Seattle, which does shows with a company called Gorilla Productions. Gorilla Productions is based out of Cleveland and they coordinate local concerts for independent bands all over the country. They offer a number of other services to local bands as well, including a consultation and band coaching program.
