What Mammoth does
Mammoth, Inc. (operating as Mammoth Live) is an independent event production company founded in 2006 and headquartered in Lawrence, Kansas. The company books, promotes, and produces concerts and live events across the United States, working with a wide range of venues from arenas to small independent clubs, boutique amphitheaters, and historic indoor theaters. It also oversees operations and ownership of several theaters, including The Roseland Theater in Portland, Oregon. The company is privately held by co-owners Josh Hunt (CEO), Jeff Fortier (President), and Casey Hunt (COO and TUSK Outreach founder).
Mammoth generates revenue through two primary streams: transaction fees on ticket sales (with $0.50 per ticket directed to its TUSK Outreach philanthropic fund) and professional services for event production across multiple genres including folk, country, rock, pop, EDM, metal, indie, and comedy. Ticketing is distributed primarily through Ticketmaster with supplemental use of Etix and other partners. Marketing is conducted organically across Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), TikTok, and Bluesky, supplemented by an email newsletter for show announcements and presale codes, as well as a street team for physical flyer distribution.
A distinctive component of Mammoth's operations is the TUSK Outreach program, launched in 2014, which directs $0.50 per ticket to clean water initiatives (Water to Thrive, Water 1st), wildlife preservation (Save The Elephants, The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, The Elephant Sanctuary), and local community organizations (Kiva loans, Shy 38 farm sanctuary). Mammoth reports funding 26 wells in Ethiopia and Uganda, with 17 built and operational, and connecting approximately 100 households serving an estimated 700 people with water access. The company has 11-50 employees and operates exclusively in the United States.

Mammoth competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Live Nation Entertainment: Live Nation Entertainment is the largest live event promoter and ticketing operator in the US (via Ticketmaster). Mammoth directly competes with Live Nation's regional promoters for artist routing, venue contracts, and ticket sales — particularly given Mammoth's reliance on Ticketmaster.
- AEG Presents: AEG Presents is the concert promotion arm of Anschutz Entertainment Group, operating across the US. It competes with Mammoth for the same artists and venues and operates owned venues (like The Crypto.com Arena) on a much larger scale.
- Ryman Hospitality Properties: Ryman Hospitality owns and operates the Grand Ole Opry, Ryman Auditorium, and Ole Red venues and runs a hospitality-focused entertainment business. It represents a larger-scale version of Mammoth's owned-venue-plus-promotion model.
- MSG Entertainment: MSG Entertainment operates Madison Square Garden and other iconic live venues, producing concerts and events. While much larger, it overlaps with Mammoth's owned-venue live event production business at the arena scale.
Direct peers
- Jam Productions: Jam Productions is a long-standing independent concert promoter based in Chicago. Like Mammoth, it books multi-genre shows across clubs, theaters, and amphitheaters in the Midwest, serving as a direct independent-promoter peer.
- I.M.P. Concerts: I.M.P. operates the 9:30 Club and other DC venues while promoting concerts. It is comparable to Mammoth as a regional independent promoter that owns/operates venues and books national tours across multiple genres.
- Another Planet Entertainment: Another Planet Entertainment is an independent Bay Area-based promoter and venue operator (Fox Theater Oakland, Lake Tahoe Outdoor Arena at Harveys). It mirrors Mammoth's venue-ownership-plus-promotion model in a different region.
- Outback Presents: Outback Presents is a US-based independent live entertainment company promoting concerts, comedy, and family shows. It competes for the same touring artist pool as Mammoth and operates on a similar multi-format, multi-genre basis.
- The Bowery Presents: The Bowery Presents is an East Coast independent concert promoter and venue operator (Bowery Ballroom, Music Hall of Williamsburg). It is a close structural peer to Mammoth — independent, regional, venue-owning, multi-genre promoter.
- Frank Productions: Frank Productions is a Madison, WI-based independent concert promoter (now part of the broader trueNorth network). Comparable to Mammoth as a Midwest independent promoter with multi-venue and multi-genre operations.
