Bands
“You not only opened doors for the future of this band…you kicked the doors down!”
That’s what Alex Madsen, lead guitarist for The Divorcees said. We can help your band walk through those doors, too!
Tom Jackson works with Rush of Fools to help them "create a moment" in their show.
We’ve worked with Grammy award winning Jars of Clay, world famous Sunshine State, and 2007 ASCAP Song of the Year winners Rush of Fools. We’ve worked with bands that have been around for years such as NewSong, bands that are just starting out, and every kind of band in between.
Why do these bands come to us for help?
Well, most artists that come to us are already good; but have you wondered why some nights it’s magical and some nights the audience just doesn’t “get you?” Do you sense you need to do more, but aren’t sure what to do? Do all your songs look the same even though they don’t sound the same?
If you’ve asked any of these questions, you need Live Music Producing to take your band to the next level. It’s about a lot more than playing well and being cool. It’s about the emotional connection with your audience and creating moments they will remember.
Do you maybe have a rhythm player who just stares down at his hands all night? A bass player who’s afraid to move? A lead singer who doesn’t know how to talk to the audience? A lead guitarist who’s TOO hyper or stands behind his pedal board all night? If you answer “yes” to any of those questions, you need the techniques and tools Tom Jackson Productions has to offer.
So, we’ve got some DVD resources to get you started. Our Band Workshop was recorded live at a Tom Jackson Productions workshop, specifically for bands. Or watch a Live Music Makeover to give you a real visual of what your band can do when you use the Tom Jackson Live Music Methods.
Maybe you’re ready to work with one of our Live Music Producers through a Video Critique or a One-on-One Rehearsal session. They can give you personalized, individual help with your songs and your show.
Check out our Bands Blogs, too. Every week we post new onstage advice tips to help your live show.
Good bands are a dime a dozen, and that’s fine if you want to do it as a hobby. But if you want a long career in music, it’s the really GREAT bands who will create a buzz and attract a following for years to come!
