Like so many theatre musicians, Joe LaRocca's path to his first Equity national tour, the currently-traveling 50th anniversary tour of Jesus Christ Superstar, was far from linear. At times, he had to change directions and even gamble on himself before he could even back it up by even owning the instrument he needed for the gig. We talk about tour life for an active tour (a first for this podcast), and the steps he did to make sure he was prepared for such a high-level gig even with very little prior theatre experience!
This episode is sponsored by The Ultimate Music Business Summit, an annual event going on its 2nd year on January 6-8. This is a must-attend event for any professional musician wanting to improve their business skills! Check out https://www.musicsummit.biz for more information.
