4 Important Reasons Foreign Artists Should Plan a U.S. Tour At Least 6 Months in Advance
Although Europe has a strong scene for electronic music and the same with South America and elsewhere, we can’t ignore the fact that the techno and house scenes in the U.S. have been growing exponentially. Places like North Carolina, Georgia, New Orleans, and even Tennessee now have Techno parties. Many might even be surprised that Dustin Zahn is from Minnesota. Maceo Plex from Dallas and that Dubfire is from Washington DC.
There are 350 million people in the United States alone and with many of them not from the U.S. originally, this is undoubtedly an international country. Cities like New York City, Los Angeles and Detroit are visited by countless tens of thousands each year for music tourism.
If you are an artist looking to play in the States, you should start planning at least 6 months in advance. This is especially so if you plan to play venues such as Output in Brooklyn or Halcyon in San Francisco or Spybar in Chicago which have lineups booked months in advance.
