My name is Dana B. I bailed on my corporate job to travel & tour with bands. I tour manage the Boston based band, Piebald. I’ve also worked as a roadie for bands such as: The Story So Far, The Front Bottoms, Bayside, Thrice, Hot Rod Circuit, Alkaline Trio, and Unearth.

About Two Week Notice

Two Week Notice is an independent music interview podcast hosted by Dana Bollen, who describes herself on her Instagram profile as a tour manager for the Boston-based band Piebald. The feed and the show description say she has also worked as a roadie for bands including The Story So Far, The Front Bottoms, Bayside and Thrice. Each episode features a musician from the hardcore, punk, emo and indie-adjacent scene, with bonus episodes and tour updates between full releases.

The show has published 79 episodes since 2021, at an average cadence of about one episode every 43 days, and full episodes typically run between 45 and 65 minutes. Apple Podcasts lists 267 ratings with an average of 5.0. Listener figures are not published; based on ratings and show age, we estimate 2,000 to 8,000 downloads per episode, and the audience is likely concentrated in the punk and emo scene in North America. No sponsors appear in the feed, so the show is currently unsponsored.

Brands selling merch, music gear or live-event services to punk and emo fans are the most natural fit. A host-read placement at the estimated audience size would typically cost $40 to $200 per episode, a rate that buys access to a loyal niche rather than mass reach.
