Building a Career as a Booking Agent in the Christian Music Industry
If you’re an aspiring artist or booking agent in the Christian music industry, you might be wondering how to get started. Elevation Conference Founder Mike Mack, a successful booking agent and manager, shares his journey of building a career in the industry on this episode of Da Fixx.
Mike Mack started by creating his own market for his Christian clothing line and eventually built a tour for local Christian hip hop artists. He explains that booking Christian hip hop artists can be challenging due to the differences between the Christian and secular industries. While secular artists have big price tags for their shows, they don’t do as many shows as Christian hip hop artists. Additionally, there can be a skewed perception of value in the Christian hip hop industry, where churches and other organizations will pay high fees for shows, but independent shows may not have as much turnout.
Despite these challenges, Mike encourages artists to feed the ecosystem by doing shows that may not pay as much but contribute to the community. This is a valuable lesson for anyone looking to build a career in the Christian music industry. It’s not just about making money, but about contributing to the community and supporting the movement.
Your broken heart is the Holy Grail
Dice Gamble and DJ Focus also discuss the importance of protecting one’s heart and processing hurt in a healthy way. They encourage listeners to keep their hearts clean and forgive others to avoid becoming an angry and disgruntled person. This is especially important for those in the music industry, where there can be a lot of rejection and disappointment.
In conclusion, building a career as a booking agent in the Christian music industry requires hard work, persistence, and a willingness to contribute to the community. But with the right mindset and approach, it can be a fulfilling and rewarding career path. And remember, always protect your heart and process hurt in a healthy way to avoid becoming bitter and disgruntled.
