Tim Wenger is a Denver-based journalist and founder of Inkwell Media Services. He is the author of So, You Have A Band and a frequent contributor to Matador Network and MicroShiner. After finishing a BA in Communications from Fort Lewis College, Tim jumped into the back of a Ford Econoline and spent a few years playing guitar in dark bars while falling in love with travel, good food, and local drink. He’s been unable to rest his pen (or his feet) ever since. (Photo from Tim’s website!)
Join us for Installment XV of the Colorado Music Collective on Tuesday, April 11th from 6-8pm at Syntax Physic Opera. This month’s guest features Tim Wenger. For the past decade, Tim has spent time playing in gigging bands. He’s also worked as the editor of an in-print music magazine and talent buyer at a long-running venue in Denver. Needless to say, he’s learned a thing or two about the industry and how to give your group its best shot at long-term success.
In his new book So, You Have A Band, Tim discusses everything a young musician needs to know to grow a band- from presenting yourself professionally to media and venues, forming an LLC or S-Corp, drafting an inter-band agreement, putting together your first DIY tour, and much more. For the amateur or aspiring musician, So, You Have a Band is a must-have resource for building your music career as an entrepreneurial business and setting out on the path to success.
