ABOUT ONLIGHTNING
Hi, it's Mirjam from Onlightning. I just love Rock'n'Roll, don't you? And then the underground bands especially. That energy of a hard working Hard Rock band... it's a lifestyle, for the musicians but also for the music lovers. Driving hours and spending all vacation days at work just to connect with the music.
Not that I don't like the bigger Rock'n'Roll bands. I love them just as much and I am so happy some of them manage to have bigger audiences. Bands like Airbourne, Thundermother, Danko Jones, The Darkness, The Hellacopters...
​
I just love to make plans too. Organise, promote and do marketing. Maybe you don't. And that's where my super power kicks in. After years of growing music business skills, I am happy that I have discovered that I connect 'the dots' fast. See opportunities and take them into action. Bite into marketing knowledge and use it to promote Rock'n'Roll.
​
I do that since 2006 with The Dirty Denims, managing, booking and promoting my own band. Since 2018 I started with Onlightning to teach musicians how to promote and to book themselves. For 10 years I worked at pop centre POPEI in Eindhoven, supporting the local music scene and sharing musician tips. Since 2022 I work part time as a marketer at ECI cultuurfabriek Roermond, promoting concerts, theater performances and film screenings.
Onlightning is in a discovery fase how to promote Rock'n'Roll at it best.
Cheers,
Mirjam
