How to promote music events, an interview with Douglas Detrick

I met Douglas Detrick years ago when we were both studying trumpet performance at Lawrence University.

These days Douglas is still playing trumpet (and the banjo!!!) and he’s the executive director of the Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble.

In this episode he shares his wealth of experience promoting jazz concerts, selling tickets, raising money for a non-profit and telling engaging stories that get people from all walks of life to care about what he’s up to musically.
