Day After Day Productions Names Jordan Dempsey Head Of Touring (Exclusive)

Day After Day Productions has promoted Director of Touring Jordan Dempsey to Head of Touring. Today’s announcement notes that the elevation is a reflection of Dempsey’s rapid rise within the company, as well as Day After Day’s commitment to recognizing and nurturing internal talent.

Dempsey will oversee Day After Day’s booking department, which consists of eight additional agents and two coordinators.

“Promoting Jordan to Head of Touring was a no brainer and reflects both his contributions to the agency as well as the respect he’s earned across the industry,” Day After Day founder and CEO Seth Shomes said in a statement. “He’s played a key role in not only signing new talent but also helping iconic artists such as 98 Degrees, The Commodores, Billy Ocean, The Spinners, Patrice Rushen and A Charlie Brown Christmas – Live grow their touring businesses.”

Dempsey’s roster also includes The Click Five, whom he signed and subsequently launched their first US tour in 14 years.

Recent career highlights for Dempsey include his bookings increasing by 64% in 2025 and working with Shomes to oversee the innovative “An Evening of Icons” Live Nation tour in 2024, which featured The Commodores, The Pointer Sisters, The Spinners, and El DeBarge. Tuesday’s announcement adds that he was also “instrumental in establishing a working relationship with the M.O.B. Agency to create strategic synergies.”

Dempsey started his career in the live business by working in the mailroom at CAA in 2016. After four and a half years at the agency, he went on to join Day After Day in September 2022 as a coordinator. Dempsey was promoted to agent in February 2023 and became Director of Touring in February 2024

Dempsey said, “I’m honored to step into the role of Head of Touring at Day After Day. Working alongside Seth and our incredible team has been extremely rewarding. From day one, Day After Day has fostered a culture of collaboration, creativity, and passionate artist advocacy. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together, and I’m excited to help lead the next phase of our evolution.”

Last month Shomes unveiled a series of key leadership promotions, with the formation of a new division dedicated to servicing Casinos, Corporates, and Colleges markets, along with a new Theater / PAC / Symphony division.
