Talking Touring

Sunday Sessions! Following the great conversation we had with you all on Instagram, we decided to put together a mini-series where we talk through wild scenarios we've both lived through on tour!

On this weeks episode we talk to our very good friend Julia Ruzicka! Julia is a bass player, mostly known for her work with bands such as Future of The Left and Million Dead. She has taken on the role of Tour Manager for several of the bands she has been in, and toured extensively across the world. We'll be discussing her career, tips for surviving on tour, Gender Disparity in the music industry, and her role as an educator at BIMM UK

This week we talk to Roger Davis. Roger is a bass player, studio wizard, guitar tech, lovely human, and stage manager. Roger has spent the most recent years working with the likes of Feeder, and James Morrison, but has been a musician for a large portion of his life too. We discuss future of touring, some tips for surviving on the road and share a few of our own stories from our time touring together around the UK and Europe.
