He is the manager of Dave Matthews Band, Phish, Chris Stapleton and The Strokes among others. He is also a concert promoter, independent record label owner, merchandiser and real estate developer.
Capshaw's career in the music industry began in 1991 when he was the owner of Trax, a venue where he gave Dave Matthews Band their first weekly gig. Seeing the success of the band locally, Capshaw began managing the band out of Trax and helped grow them from playing in nightclubs to amphitheaters and stadiums.
