065 - Jorge Meehan and Brian Murphy from JBM Events chat event promotion and touring events

Author: Grahame Farmer February 24, 2020 Duration: 22:53

In only one year, Jorge Meehan and Brian Murphy’s JBM Events have established themselves as one of the country's foremost party promoters and draw on over 20 years of experience of hosting events. Last year alone they booked 328 artists, hosted 64 events, had 53,298 attendees, held music shows and festivals in seven different UK cities and was nominated as ‘Best Large Club Promoter’ in Skiddle’s 18th Birthday Awards. In 2020 the company's festival count exceeds 20 with the hope to attract over 120,000 attendees this year alone not to mention booking over 150 music events across the country.

Each event they host is focussed on getting the details right, so you can always be sure that the mesmeric lights, epic sound systems and close knit atmospheres are unlike any other you have experienced. They take place in leading venues up and down the country and deal with the most assured and iconic brands, DJs, labels and artists in dance music. The latest schedule is another bold statement of intent that covers plenty of the electronic spectrum and with the launch of seven new festivals will take their festival count past the 20 mark.

I sat down with Brian & Jorge to talk about event promotion, running massive events and the events they have coming in 2020.

Grahame Farmer hosts Music Talk, a podcast that feels more like a series of candid conversations backstage than a formal interview show. Now in its third season, the focus remains on the practical realities of building a life in music, whether you're behind the decks or in the studio. Each episode is loaded with actionable advice and hard-won insights, but it’s the genuine motivation woven throughout that regular listeners appreciate. You’ll hear from a wide range of voices, from touring artists and label owners to promoters and even lawyers, all discussing the topics that actually matter. Past discussions have dug into navigating platforms like Spotify, the intricacies of getting music signed, and sustaining creative drive. Grahame’s approach is to bring out the inner perspective of his guests, moving beyond surface-level success stories to uncover the real strategies and personal challenges. This isn't just about inspiration; it's a resource built on shared experience. For DJs, producers, and anyone curious about the inner workings of the industry, this podcast offers a direct line to the people shaping the sound.
