AJ Faber (Tour Manager for The National, Grimes, Sleigh Bells, Spoon and Courtney Barnett)

Welcome to Roadcase, a podcast exploring the live music experience!!  Join us for this episode with this super-human Tour Manager, AJ Faber!  AJ manages tours for some amazing artists such as The National, Grimes, Spoon, Kurt Vile, Sleigh Bells and Courtney Barnett. A self-proclaimed "organizational freak," AJ -- at the relatively young age of 35 -- has steered tours on her own for over 10 years... an incredible feat.  Hers is a true bootstraps story, having worked her way up and networked herself into her first tour management job many years ago using her passion, dedication, innate skills, and sheer determination as a guiding force.  AJ's story is truly inspirational yet sadly, has also been marked by AJ falling victim to sexual assault -- but she has persevered!!  Come hear AJ's inspiring and soul-lifting story as well as the challenges and struggles she has faced. This is a not-to-be-missed episode.  Thanks for coming along for this important ride on the Roadcase bus. For more information: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comContact: [email protected] music:  "Eugene" (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
