    EPISODE 1

    Jamie Wellwarth

    When you walk into a legendary venue and the sound hits you just right, you aren't just hearing music—you’re hearing years of meticulous engineering and local history. It takes a specific kind of veteran to bridge the gap between world tours and community pillars, and Jamie Wellwarth is a master of that craft. Currently at Nomad Sound, Jamie’s career has taken him from Binghamton, NY, to stages across the globe. In today’s episode, we dive into one of Jamie’s standout "it" moments: managing the high-stakes production of the Arlyn Studios 40th Anniversary Party, an all-day marathon featuring a gauntlet of local legends and national acts.

    EPISODE 2

    Ryan Tarby

    When you’re in the crowd getting your face melted by a massive stage production, it’s easy to get lost in the spectacle. But have you ever wondered how those towering walls of tech and pyro appear and disappear in a matter of hours? While advancements in materials and technology have changed the game, it still takes a master conductor to coordinate the evolving symphony of logistics required to build these shows for bands to take the stage. Ryan Tarby is one of those conductors. From running production for major festivals and international tours to managing operations & logistics for Boss Radio and stage managing at the iconic Mohawk in Austin, Ryan has spent his career making sure the chaos starts on time and is out on time. In today’s episode, we dive into one of Ryan’s definitive "it" moments: stage managing for Gojira on the massive Mega-Monster Tour. CONTACT Drew: Drew@thewerdcompany.com Feedback - Give feedback.
