band manager
Group's business handler
A band manager handles the business affairs of a musical group—booking shows, negotiating contracts, coordinating schedules, and promoting the band's career.
The manager serves as intermediary between artists and the music industry: Their band manager got them a record deal.
Good band managers protect their clients from exploitation while maximizing opportunities.
