Interview by Andy Gensler Pollstar Magazine

VIDEO: With over 40 years of success in the live production business, one would think tours of every stripe would be lining up to hire the eminently qualified Lance “K.C.” Jackson and Bill Reeves as tour or production managers. Unfortunately, for over four decades in an industry lacking in racial diversity and inclusion, no major tour by a white artist ever called. Their organization Roadies of Color United International is actively working to change that.

Jackson and Reeves  discusses their experience in the industry in the Pollstar Live!/VenuesNow Digital Session, interviewed by executive editor Andy Gensler.

Reeves was recently recognized as part of Pollstar’s 2020 Impact 50 list, honoring the executives most impacting the live entertainment industry today.
