Episode: Episode 41: Laura Simpson of Side Door Access Connects Musicians and Artists with Cozy House-Concert Style Venues. And They Just Recieved 500k on Dragon’s Den.
Description: Defending the artist has always been at the core of Laura Simpson’s quest for creative justice. With a background in journalism, she has made it her life’s work to share stories and create opportunities for live music and performing arts. It was during a backyard party at her own house that her lightbulb moment led to the wildly successful and supportive business, Side Door Access. The company she co-founded with Dan Mangan has booked more than 1200 acts and also brought us together for countless virtual house parties during the pandemic.Â
