Honoured to be working with Anaïs Mitchell for this show
Tour Support & Logistical Services Created With You In Mind…
Founded by Rebecca Kemp in 2008, On Tour Logistics was created to provide friendly, professional tour support to artists represented by renowned British roots music agent Bob Paterson (BPA Live) in preparation for their tours of the UK.
You might wonder why Rebecca loves working her socks off for musicians and bands. Well, the biggest reason is because she values people. Whoever you are, whatever you do; you matter. And when it comes to touring, she wants to make sure that each person involved is valued. She is always striving for excellence with the musician’s best interests at heart – whilst searching for the most perceptive solutions.
About Rebecca
Rebecca may be just 5ft 4 tall, but she loves a challenge – no matter how big or small. Since the beginning of her career as a freelance tour logistics coordinator, or as Bob Paterson calls her ‘The Queen of Logistics’ she has found great delight in working out the finer logistical details of each musician’s itinerary, leaving the artists to focus on the job at hand – performing their music.
Rebecca is the behind-the-scenes guru for many of the American and Canadian roots artists travelling in the UK, sorting out all the problems of travelling in a foreign country, making sure they get to all their shows in good time and that they’re fed, lodged and paid along the way. And she does it all with a smile on her face.
Rebecca’s background is in Fine Art and when she’s not on the road, she spends time carving and welding in her studio.

Because the services of On Tour Logistics are individually tailored to fit the specific needs of each musician and band, costs naturally vary from tour to tour and between different artists. However, the one thing that is always consistent is Rebecca’s desire to value people and serve them as best as possible.
