Intricacies of Being a Business Development Professional and Project Manager in the Music Industry!

As a booking agent with Off The Hook Management representing & .adams.music , I’ve gotten used to wearing many hats. From strategizing long-term growth plans to managing the minute details of an artist’s tour, the dual roles of business development professional and project manager constantly keeps me on my toes.

Business Development: This side of my work is all about relationships, research, and vision. Whether it’s identifying new venues, negotiating contracts, or exploring partnerships, my goal is to create opportunities that align with each artist’s goals while growing the reach of our roster. It’s a mix of creative thinking, forging relationships, and anticipating trends in the entertainment industry.

Project Management: This is where the vision becomes reality. Managing tours involves juggling logistics, timelines, and a thousand moving parts. From confirming show dates to ensuring the travel schedule runs smoothly, it’s about finding the balance between precision and adaptability. Every successful event is the result of collaboration with promoters, artists, and countless behind-the-scenes professionals. Did I mention spreadsheets?! 😍

But what makes this job so rewarding is the intersection of passion and impact. I get to help artists turn their dreams into realities, connect audiences to incredible live experiences, and build meaningful connections within the music world- as well as getting to be a part of the music industry without having a lick of talent myself (unless you count singing by myself in the car or in the shower, of course).

I’m so grateful for what I get to do and for the artists I currently and will potentially work with down the road.

Please feel free to reach out to me with any booking inquiries or great spots you’d love to see the bands perform at by PM’ing or emailing me at: [email protected]

Thanks for all of the support for the bands and towards my journey in this role! 🙏🙏🤘🥳

I’m absolutely thrilled to welcome .adams.music to the roster alongside ! 🎶🤘🔥

Sarah is a powerhouse q***r folk Americana rock artist originally from South Carolina and now based in Denver, Colorado. Influenced by artists like Brandi Carlile, Eva Cassidy, and Sara Bareilles, her music cracks you wide open. With warmth and tenacity, Sarah commands the stage—whether she’s performing solo with her acoustic guitar, as a duo with her hand percussionist, or with her full band. Her live shows seamlessly blend high-energy folk rock with poignant Americana ballads, all held together by her incredible storytelling, honed through her background in live theater.

Sarah’s lyrics dive deep—exploring everything from the magic of the kids she nannies to the challenges of making art in a capitalist world, from the joy of living her truth as a q***r artist to the liberation of shedding perfectionism. She connects with her audience in a way that’s truly special.

I can’t wait to help bring Sarah’s music and message to new stages across the country. If you’re interested in booking Sarah, let’s talk! Reach out to me via email at [email protected] or DM me on social media!

I’m absolutely thrilled to share TWO huge milestones today!

First, I’ve officially booked 100 shows for the incredible 🎶 This journey began with, and is really because of them, and it’s been such an honor to help them bring their music to stages across the country. I am so grateful to be a part of it. 

Second—and equally exciting—I’m thrilled to announce that Off The Hook Management has officially signed our second artist: .adams.music

🌟 Sarah is a powerhouse q***r folk Americana rock artist based in Denver, CO, whose music is raw, beautiful, and full of heart. If you haven’t already, you need to give her a listen—you’ll fall in love with her sound!

When I first started this journey, I never imagined building my own business in the music world. Yet here I am, feeling so incredibly blessed to work with such talented artists and help share their stories with the world. This is just the beginning, and I can’t wait to see what’s next for 2025!

Thank you to everyone who’s supported me, the Carlile Family Band, and now Sarah Adams. Your encouragement makes it all possible. Here’s to more milestones, more music, and more magic! 

-Shannon
