We’re excited to announce that the On The Bus with Troy Vollhoffer podcast is officially BACK — and we’re kicking off this new season with an absolute must-listen episode for music lovers and industry insiders alike.
In this first episode, Country Thunder Founder Troy Vollhoffer sits down with three of Nashville’s top agents for an unfiltered, behind-the-scenes look at how live shows come to life and how artists actually make their money:
🎧 Curt Motley – Agent at United Talent Agency
🎧 Rod Essig – Vice President at Creative Artists Agency
🎧 Nick Meinema – Agent at Action Entertainment
These three heavyweights have worked with some of the biggest names in music — from Tim McGraw and Joan Jett to the late, great Toby Keith. Together, they share incredible stories from the road and give you a rare inside look at the business of booking, from dive bars to sold-out festivals and stadium tours.
If you’ve ever wondered how your favorite artists land those gigs — and what it really takes to succeed in the world of live music — this episode is for you.
