Capsule presents:
In conversation: Martin Atkins
Sunday 31st May 2009
@ The Hare & Hounds . Kings Heath
5 - 7pm
Free Event!

Martin wrote his book Tour:Smart in 2007 and has since spoken around the
world, tonight he is joining us in Birmingham to share his experience in
nearly every aspect of record production and promotion, his unique
perspective not only on where the music industry is currently, but where it
is going in the future. Martin's Tour:Smart presentation contains not only
valuable insight into his methods, but an unusually candid discussion of
mistakes and failures. It covers routing strategies, strategies to sustain,
sponsorships, geography, guerrilla marketing, and entrepreneurial activity
in the music industry.

- This is a free event!

"Four Stars! The ultimate touring manual. Tackles every conceivable aspect
of getting the show on the road in a highly readable style."
Kris Needs – MOJO Magazine

Martin Atkins is the definition of entrepreneurial activity in cultural arts
endeavors, his 30+ years in the music business spans across genres and
borders and industries. He was a member of Public Image Ltd and Killing
Joke. He founded industrial supergroup Pigface, The Damage Manual, and
Murder Inc., and has contributed to Nine Inch Nails and Ministry. He is the
owner of Invisible Records and Mattress Factory Recording Studios (est.
1988). He is the author of Tour:Smart, a Suicide Girls columnist, and a full
time lecturer at Columbia College Chicago. Martin is a producer, drummer,
documentary film maker, DJ, and father of four. Whatever the future of music
is, you can pretty much bet that he’ll be in the middle of it.
