KEYNOTE
Chuck Hull

Chuck Hull brings more than five decades of experience in the live music and entertainment industry, with a career spanning audio engineering, tour management, talent coordination, and event management.

​

He began his career with Clair Brothers in the early 1970s before moving to Los Angeles in 1978, where he expanded his work into tour management. He spent three years as a talent coordinator for ABC’s Fridays and also joined the Directors Guild of America as a stage manager. Over the course of more than 30 years on the road, Chuck worked across rock, pop, and jazz before eventually making his way to Nashville. There, he spent the final 20 years of his touring career as Tour Manager for Keith Urban.

​

After retiring from touring in January 2024, Chuck shifted his focus to consulting with artists and management teams, helping bring creative designs and projects from concept through completion.

Having spent his career immersed in the realities of life on the road, Chuck understands both the rewards and challenges of working in an industry that often operates project to project without a long-term support structure. That experience makes ECCHO Live’s mission particularly meaningful to him. He is passionate about helping build a stronger, more sustainable support system for the people behind the live experiences we all enjoy.
