Mulligan Stew Jan 6th 2018- Dan Mangan Interview

Episode Notes

Saturday’s  show has 90 minutes of wall to wall music. A wicked mix of blues, R&B, Roots, pure great rock and roll (The Faces – Stay with Me, Springsteen Live in Dublin, The Sheepdogs Live at The Roxy LA, Jimi, Colin James, Imagine Dragons, Sarah McLachlan and – wait for it – Nancy Sinatra

The last 30 minutes features Dan Mangan. We talk a bit about what he’s currently working on but Dan really wants all of us to know about a movement he’s helping to lead.

Because of the imploding nature of today’s  music business artists really need a DIY movement and this is it.

It’s called Side Door Access www.sidedooraccess.com

“We are building a platform where artists can earn a living by trimming the overhead of touring. We help you find magical small spaces with dedicated hosts and attentive audiences.

We want to help create human, tactile experiences offline. Music, Speakers, Dance, Theatre, Comedy – you name it.”

They currently have 200 artists and 300 hosts and the movement is growing every week.

Dan explains how artists and hosts hook up..set a date, time and location and then tickets get sold. Friends are made, one gig at a time.

It’s a fascinating story…Let Dan Mangan be your narrator.
