Strategy
Your music deserves a plan. From release timelines to long-term artist goals, we use data-driven insights and creative instinct to help your music stand out. Through building comprehensive schedules, asset creation plans, radio and PR campaigns, marketing strategies, and distribution coordination - our team works closely with artists to ensure that no project gets lost in the void.
Artist Development
We work closely with each artist to identify creative goals, refine sonic identity, take control of the stage and online presence, and build sustainable systems for both artistic and personal growth. Whether that means connecting you with trusted producers, co-designing your brand and merch, or offering one-on-one coaching around the creative process.
Distribution
Full-service support including digital and physical distribution, playlist and sync placement pitching, and rights management. Think of us as your trusted courier through the dark forest of metadata and media markets.
Digital Marketing
We bridge creativity and data to amplify your reach. From social media campaigns and ad management to content strategy, we focus on authentically growing your audience and social media presence. We specialize in making your music easy to find for existing and future fans.
Publishing
Your songs deserve protection and potential. Our publishing services handle copyright registration, royalty collection, licensing opportunities, and global administration. We help you understand your rights, track your earnings, make informed decisions about your catalog, and protect your works from rights-stealing gremlins.
