info_outlineIn our final video of this series Claire Murphy, guitar tech, tour manager, and former musician, leaves us with some great tips for living on & off the road as a touring professional.
Based on Claire’s book, Girl on the Road: How to Break into Touring from a Female Perspective, Claire lays out a strategy for becoming freelance and leaving your regular job, with real world recommendations of who to contact and resources to use. Her book won't tell you how to become a sound engineer or how to re-string a guitar, but it will tell you how to get that first job on tour where you can put your skills to use or simply learn on the job. While this book isn't intended just for girls, it does address some female specific issues. But it can certainly be applied to ANYONE looking to break into the world of touring.
Claire Murphy has worked for bands such as Vance Joy, Elle King, Lord Huron, Babes in Toyland, The Raveonettes, ABC, Go West, Tony Hadley, Therapy? and many many others, playing in venues from bars to arenas, and 80,000 capacity stadiums. She has toured in splitter vans around Europe, flown in for shows in Russia, South America, Australia and Japan, and toured in buses around the USA and Canada.
She mentors women trying to break into the live music industry via the organization SoundGirls.org and often welcomes them to come shadow her for a day on tour.
