Jake Curran & Seán Murray from Echocat Live chat with Zoé Piater to take us behind the scenes and unpack how they bring live performances to life.

With years of experience across global stages and genres, they share insights into processes in live production and music direction: creative ideas behind Niall Horan's 'The Show Live On Tour' from intimate acoustic setups that feel like a pub session to spontaneous setlists crafted just hours before the show, the mission of their music direction collective, Echocat, working with Vevo and more.

Jake and Seán's collective experience has produced shows ranging from sold out theatres and clubs to packed out main-stage festival slots and stadiums. Individually, they have worked with artists like Niall Horan, Cian Ducrot, Julia Michaels, Dermot Kennedy, and many more. They’ve also worked closely with creative teams such as Vevo and TikTok, and curated TV performances for shows such as Saturday Night Live, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and the Graham Norton Show. 

ECHOCAT Live offer services such as Musical Direction, Playback & Programming, Orchestral Arrangement and Sound Design, striving to ensure that each show is unique with emphasis on human connection that makes live music so captivating.

This one’s for fans of live music, aspiring music directors, and anyone interested in the behind the scenes!
