S1 Episode 11: Booking Gigs ft. Janet Hammer

Meet Janet Hammer. She’s one of San Diego’s hardest-working and busiest singers. She has led countless bands and vocal groups. Many know her from The Mar Dels, Ira Liss Big Band Jazz Machine, The Xceptional Tribute to ABBA, and Sweethearts of Swing. She’s a hard-driven gigging machine! Janet was raised by entrepreneurs and built several successful businesses early in her career. In 1989 she created an amazingly successful Christmas caroling company, The Full Measure Carolers. It grew from one quartet to over 15 quartets booking an average of 250 gigs during the holiday season with the most gigs in one season at 436 gigs within a 5-week span.
