A New Era for Artists
I love Taylor Swift but my reasons for being a Swiftie are less about her music (which don’t get me wrong, I love!) and more about her savvy business acumen and ability to connect deeply with her massive fan base. Taylor’s ambitious project to recreate her early career music catalog into “Taylor’s Versions” is the first thing that made me …
Navigating the Tech Industry as a Female CEO
Our Head of Marketing suggested that I write a post on being a woman tech leader for Women’s History Month. My knee-jerk reaction was to list excuses about why I would not. We should focus our content on the business. We need business. I’m in back-to-back meetings all week. A more important fire drill popped up. But the *real* excuses …
The Show Must Go On, On Time
In 2007, Kanye West rapped the immortal words ‘You should be honored by my lateness. That I would even show up to this fake shit.’ Four years later I was at Madison Square Garden waiting for Kanye and Jay-Z to take the stage. It had been nearly two hours past when they were supposed to go on and I was …
Empowering Artists in the Digital Age: Live Bash’s Mission
Hi! KP here, I’m the CEO at Live Bash where our mission is to help artists find new ways to connect with fans.

Not Your Average Show Merch
Think back to the most unforgettable live show you’ve ever experienced. Close your eyes for a moment and let the memories envelop you – the pulsating energy, the melodies, the crowd’s roar, and the cherished concert tee tucked away in your closet. Whether it was belting out N’sync tunes, feeling connected during a special song, or diving into the exhilarating …
The Case for Doing It Live (edited)
The platform you’re reading this on, allows for published stories to be edited. Meaning this piece could look completely different when you refresh the page and there would be nothing to indicate that the content had been changed in any way. Let’s say I wrote a 10,000 word treatise on how Honeycrisp is the best kind of apple. You click …
Talk Ducky To Me
There is one thing you will always find on my desk: a yellow rubber ducky. When I was at NYU pursuing a BFA in Film & TV, I foolishly attempted to double major in Computer Science. Even though I ultimately decided to downgrade CompSci to a minor in my senior year because I didn’t want to take calculus, I ended …
Redefining Failure
Since graduating college and joining Live Bash I’ve been forced to rethink my relationship to failure. I majored in mathematics where much of my success was predicated on my ability to answer questions correctly. There are many ways to arrive at a solution, but ultimately, right is right, and wrong is wrong. Thus, I was made to feel like an …
Why Launching A Start-Up With People In 5 Different Time Zones Was Our Savviest Move
I learned the most important lesson from business school within the first 72 hours of being an MBA student. Conventional business school wisdom would advise telling the reader said takeaway in the first paragraph, but some guidelines are worth veering away from. Such as a word of caution given to me about joining the founding team at Live Bash. I mentioned …
