promoters

The Mothership is a newly remodeled facility with three floors, four full-service bars, and in-house sound, lighting, and video systems. We have working relationships with numerous local music stores, media outlets, agencies & promoters, and hotels. All key personnel carry cell phones for instant problem solving.

"I have spent more than three decades as a musician, agent, promoter, and audio systems technician. My goal in designing and configuring this concert facility is to create an environment in which every member of an act, their production team, and their management can operate at peak efficiency and comfort. I have personally worked in hundreds of venues up and down the west coast ranging in size from 100 seat clubs to 50,000 seat domes and sheds.Armed with first hand knowledge of what makes a show painless,and what makes it a nightmare, my staff and I have set out to create a near-perfect setting in which those responsible for the success of an event have everything they need within easy reach. From the simplest requirement such as suitable power for hair dryers in the dressing rooms, to the onsite multitrack recording facilities, we are attempting to address every major shortcoming of so many other venues. We want the talent and the production team to be as happy as the audience."
