We’re really excited to welcome onto this week’s show Naomi Palmer - the Managing Director of Earth Agency, the booking agency who’s roster includes the likes of Children Of Zeus, Chaos in the CBD, Erika De Casier and Kassa Overall. She was there at the birth of Brownswood Recordings with Gilles Peterson and has gone on to be an important player in the development of the beautiful Worldwide Festival in Sète.
This is an important podcast for artists and people who are looking to take a step into the booking agency world. Zaid asked the questions you have always wanted to ask and Naomi was there to break down exactly what we wanted to know: what do they do that artists can’t do themselves? What do they look for in artists? How do you choose a booking agency? How do festivals pick the line-up? She was also on hand to help newer artists with knowing your worth when having the awkward conversation of negotiating your gig fees.
In the episode, she talks about her own unique journey of entering the music industry, proving there’s no clear cut way of doing it. She discusses the importance of working as a team, how she discovered Portico Quartet and what she really thinks of the inimitable Gilles Peterson.
