What do the Corona Sunsets Festivals, Our Lady Peace and the Dalai Lama have in common? Jessica Lemmon! This episode we sit down with Jessica to discuss what road life is like on tour, how she got her first working tour gig with Our Lady Peace(!), why she decided to stay freelance, why she turned down jobs when she first moved to Toronto so that she could volunteer; as well as what's involved in holding a successful festival/event. She breaks down the behind-the-scenes roles which include management and wellbeing, the technical side, the talent management, site management, entrance management, etc... and what she does to keep it all running smoothly.
Enjoy!
