Paul Bacher:

32-year old NYC based Talent Buyer for Brooklyn Bowl Williamsburg. Paul Bacher is a live events industry pro. Growing up in Connecticut, just a stone\\u2019s throw away from the bustling nightlife of New York City.

Paul\\u2019s mother was a musical theater fanatic and got him involved in piano, drum lessons at an early age which eventually led him to play in jazz ensembles, rock bands, acapella groups and more.

After spending countless hours around music and venues, Bacher naturally gravitated towards the live concert business. Tenacity in mind, Bacher started cold-calling concert venues and asking if they needed any help. After landing a position at The Cutting Room, where he booked five shows with legendary comedian Dave Chapelle, he went on to book hundreds of local and national acts at The Knitting Factory Brooklyn and City Winery. Bacher\'s musical background and years spent booking shows in the independent New York club scene has made him a passionate and proactive promoter.\\xa0
