Episode Synopsis
What happens when two college grads with a love for music, nightlife, and a dream of building something massive say "yes" to the unknown? Fast forward 15 years in this episode, Carly sits down with her older brother Adam Lynn and his business partner Zach Ruben, the co-founders of Breakaway Music Festival — now one of the largest national touring music festivals in the U.S.We go behind the scenes on how they bootstrapped their way from throwing small campus shows to producing arena-sized experiences in 12+ cities, working with artists like Kendrick Lamar, Diplo, and Tiësto. They share how they survived the pandemic, what today’s festival fans really want, why Gen Z is changing the game, and how they always stay ahead of the curve.🎧 Connect with Carly @carelesswithcarly and [email protected]🔗 Connect with Adam @adamlynn and Zach @zachruben💌 Follow Breakaway @breakaway and check out their festival line-up here: www.breakawayfestival.com
