We Should Do This More Often

​We Should Do This More Often is a private morning gathering for artist managers to begin Lollapalooza Friday with intention. Hosted by Brandon Jones, Mary Lawler, and Hector Toscano from the Grammy-award winning Classick Studios, this invitation-only morning gathering brings together artist managers from Chicago and around the world for meaningful conversation over coffee at Dark Matter Coffee's Star Lounge.

​Designed as a moment to disconnect from the pace of the festival while reconnecting with the people behind the work, the event encourages authentic conversations that often get lost in the rush of festival weekend.

​The morning begins with casual networking, allowing managers representing both local and global artists to meet, exchange ideas, and build relationships in a relaxed setting.

​Following the coffee hour, the group will transition to Classick Studios for an intimate conversation led by Chris Classick and Juliana Miller, focused on artist development, management, collaboration, and the importance of building a stronger, more connected manager community.

​At its core We Should Do This More Often is about investing in the people who invest in artists. By creating intentional space for connection, the event aims to strengthen relationships between local and visiting managers, encourage future collaboration, and continue elevating Chicago as a city that values its creative community.
