Promoters

If your band is already planning on playing in Asia then it's cheap and easy to include Taiwan in your tour-route. While Japan can't be denied as one of the most popular countries to tour, Taiwanese people share a similar youthful energetic love of live music and overseas acts are nearly always sold-out events. Taiwan has the benefit of being much cheaper and is a great central stopover point for those wanting to go to Hong Kong, China and South East Asia (and then on to Australia & New Zealand!).

In order to make it easier on these promoters, have a look at their website first see if they're the right promoters for your band. When contacting them, tell them about your band and include links to your website(s) where they can hear your music and see what you're like.
