Mastering Events Podcast #23: Randy Nichols (Fly South Music Group)

Randy Nichols is an artist manager and music tech startup advisor. He also has one of those resumes that makes you question whether he’s found a few more hours in the day than the rest of us. He's guided artists to multiple Gold records and Grammy nominations, as well as overseen record releases and sold out tours on six continents. He manages or has managed Underoath, The Starting Line, Vacationer, Aaron Gillespie, Say Anything, Bayside, Person L, The Almost, Hit The Lights, Beach Slang, Fake Problems, and Jamison Parker and The Pilfers. He is an advisor for the leading live event commerce platform atVenu, creative agency Tension Division, and artist management platform Immensity, while also serving as a board member for the International Independent Talent Organization and working with Eleven75 Collective and Fly South Music Group. Randy is very hands on with the marketing of his artists, and with Underoath currently in the middle of a very successful European and US run of shows, it was a great time to speak with him about some of the marketing techniques they’ve used to sell tickets. We also speak about the Department of Justice’s antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation-Ticketmaster, as Randy has been very vocal about what he thinks it will and won’t achieve, and where the focus should be in order to reduce ticket prices and increase accessibility to shows for fans.
