Finding Mastery with Dr. Michael Gervais

Peter Shapiro: The Most Influential Concert Promoter of His Generation


Listen Later

This week’s conversation is with Peter Shapiro, a music industry legend and perhaps the most influential independent concert promoter of his generation. 

Over his eclectic career, Peter has produced several acclaimed and groundbreaking projects, and was listed on Billboard’s Power 100 List for “Most Influential People in the Music Business”.

Peter is the owner of several legendary music venues around the country which have hosted some of the biggest names in modern music – The Rolling Stones, The Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Leonard Cohen, Snoop Dogg, David Bowie, U2, The Roots, and so many more. In total, Peter has played a major role in putting on over 10,000 shows and concerts in his lifetime.

Over his eclectic career, Peter has also produced several acclaimed and groundbreaking projects, including two documentary films on The Grateful Dead, an IMAX behind-the-scenes concert film featuring artists like Santana, Dave Matthews, Sting, & Sheryl Crow, and the first ever live-action concert film released in digital 3D following performances from U2.

Most recently, Peter published his first book, The Music Never Stops, which chronicles insights, stories, and back-stage anecdotes from 50 of his most influential concerts.

But this conversation is not just about music – it’s about insights from a pioneer who paved the way in his industry through grit, resourcefulness, and utilizing the power of relationships. I can’t wait for you to learn from Peter and hear his incredible stories.
