For over 30 years I have been a professional who has worked in both the music industry, fashion, marketing, art, photography, & film. It is an unmatched level of broad work experience & education for you to tap into. My clients have included celebrities, record labels, agencies, filmmakers, and magazines such as Rolling Stone, Spin & NME. I'm a self-proclaimed music addict. I love hearing great music and making it greater. I love hearing new artists and helping them reach their highest potential. It's what I live for! I am the Founder & CEO of a boutique sync licensing agency in Los Angeles, Artist Network Agency. We do not accept unsolicited music so this is a great way to introduce yourself. I also offer 360 degree artist development & management with NO stone unturned, or 1 hour - 1 day consultations. I am an art director and a well experienced festival producer. This includes securing brand partnerships. As an art and film director I can turn your music video into a master piece or take your indie or full feature film to another level. As a former music industry photographer I can help any person wanting to enter this world with key lessons and coaching. In music production and with a trained ear I can help take your raw demo's and give you feedback on what you may need to improve or notes for mastering. Here are my list of Music Management & Development Services that are also available Ala-carte on a case by case basis. ● Help artist procure social media assistance if requested (artists expense) ● Analyze Instagram, facebook, and all social media and advise on regular basis ● Approve social media content with artist if working with a social media manager. ● Help facilitate a sharing method between artist, manager, and social media manager (if acquired) ● Advise on how to organize all social media. A critical error is when an artist thinks they have it figured out. ● Book shows (minimally) unless through agency, which is dependent on artist. ● Clean up and add key elements to biography ● Schedule photo shoots ● Analyze your music for sync and advise how to prepare your tracks for submission ● Create an artist or influencer pitch deck - great when trying to gain sponsorship of any kind ● Assist artist in finding a space to rehearse & living space, locally or in tour destinations ● Submit pitches to blogs and local magazines in an attempt to garner press on a limited scope. For a more full time complete successful media campaign formal Public Relations firm is recommended. Also, able to help guide in this process and give referrals to help artist secure proper PR, at artists expense, when desired. ● Brand collaboration- Availability to seek out brands that artist might be able to get income or other value from a partnership. ● Streaming Growth- Research ways artist can implement methods to help grow streaming, primarily Spotify but also apple music, youtube, and all platforms ● Listen and evaluate all music, provide feedback and advice, including order of single releases etc. ● Submissions of artists to record labels ● Oversee all content creation including videos ● Overseeing live shows and providing feedback ● Can submit artist for interviews on podcasts and local radio ● As a manager I collect monies on behalf of artist if money is owed, to be delivered to artist ● Booking: recording time, interviews, performances, and appearances.
