Gillenwalters is a digital marketer for musicians at Indepreneur.io. He has worked one-on-one with more than 150 musicians to help them achieve six-figure revenues, sold-out shows and Billboard-charting album sales. Utilizing a sales-first marketing approach, Gillenwalters is passionate about liberating artists from gatekeepers by putting the power to monetize and grow their audience into the artists’ hands.

All Shenandoah Conservatory students, faculty and staff are invited to attend these presentations. Seating is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis; priority seating will be reserved for students enrolled in their respective classes. 

Gillenwalters’ visit was coordinated by Interim Director of Contemporary Musicianship & Entrepreneur Development (CMED) and Visiting Assistant Professor of Music Jesse Terry, B.M.
