Show Notes
Project management is something that many businesses struggle with when they're just starting out. Bands are no different, in fact project management and team collaboration are one of the biggest factors I see bands struggling with. In fact, all too many times it's one of the factors for a band's lack of success!

About Aaron
Drummer, Management, Production
Hi – I’m Aaron. I have worn a number of hats during my music and touring career, but I have spent the majority of my time as Production for a recording artist, and as manager and drummer in my melodic punk band, Suburban Samurai.
Based in Burlington, Vermont, we have toured New England, the Mid Atlantic, and the Mid West USA with approximately 30-50 shows a year since 2016. Now we're enjoying the process of writing a new record.
In addition to spending the last four years very much inside a world of punk rock, I have also spent a number of years working closely with a musical artist in a production capacity which has allowed me to be involved with numerous concert tours, promotional events, and private gigs on five continents.
Whether we’re talking about gigs in a Brazilian soccer stadium, an arena in Melbourne, Jazzfest in Montreal, or a punk rock club in Boston, I appreciate the consistent and honest work that goes into music and its supporting industries.
