THE MASSAV EXPERIENCE
Live Entertainment at its best. See what everyone’s been saying.
“Blair provided everything i needed, on technical, professional, & hospitality levels. would use again in a heartbeat.”
“Over my past 35 years working in the music industry I have been most fortunate to work with a great many musicians, technical people and promoters. My experience at a recent performance in Invercargill I had the great pleasure of working with Blair Savory and his team, my message to anyone engaging in partnership with Blair is to prepare yourself for the utmost professionalism, friendliness and can do attitude, you will wish everyone you encountered in the music industry was like Blair”
“Blair was the local promoter for the sell-out show in Invercargill as part of the Hollie Smith South Island tour in 2017. He did an ace job of all aspects of this project, was extremely hospitable in looking after us, was very organised and just great to deal with in general.”
“I have worked with Blair on a number of shows, he is professional, informed and delivers an experience with extra care and detail.”
“I first met Blair Savory when he sought out Hopetoun Brown for his wonderful boutique outdoor music festival Monk Fest, nestled in the mountains of Central Otago. Since then he’s booked several ticketed shows for Hopetoun Brown and our good friend Carnivorous Plant Society in places like Invercargill and Bluff. He was also invaluable helping us market our Stewart Island show in Oban. He looked after us brilliantly and made us feel ever so welcome when we arrived. Not only is he a gifted curator of live music, but he has all of the staging and production to create world class outdoor or indoor events anywhere throughout the region.
Blair is at once gentle and determined. He plows his own furrow with an ambitious vision for the wider creative sector in the deep south. An accomplished musician himself, Blair brings a wonderful artistic empathy to his work creating events, concerts and festivals in and around his home town of Invercargill. It’s rare indeed to find a promoter with such a feel for the potential of a given event. He’s also characterised by his artistic bravery, calmness and problem solving instincts. These qualities coupled with his knack for fitting the right act in a complementary venue make him an absolute treasure of this often overlooked region. If you’re a touring act on the road in the South Island you’d be mad not to get in touch with Blair. He has a unique knowledge of how to make a show take flight in this beautiful region with stacks of potential. Over the past three years Blair has become a real friend to Hopetoun Brown and I’d recommend him unstintingly to any act considering visiting the South. I take it a step further and say the presence of MASSAV Productions in Southland is a great reason to get down there and put on a kick ass show!”
