Angus & Julia Stone ProfileAngus & Julia Stone, Ladyhawke, Neil Finn, Allbrook/Avery, Ta-Ku and Chvrches have all joined the Artist Voice roster, which will today announce a Melbourne office to be run by Dave Batty.
Adding to existing offices in Sydney, Auckland, Hong Kong and Singapore, the Mushroom Group company has grown to one of the region's top music industry agencies in the past two years.
Batty, a respected agent and manager of The Jezabels, will run the Melbourne arm from the Block Arcade building on Collins Street.
CEO Brett Murrihy said, “We have wanted to set up a location for the agency in Melbourne for some time given the city's importance to the live music scene in Australia. This provides us with the best resources to service our many clients based in Melbourne and also provide us greater access to A&R opportunities to secure the most exciting new acts emerging from Melbourne.”
Previously booked by IMC, Angus & Julia Stone join Artist Voice following their worldwide breakout on the almost-million selling Down The Way record. New Zealand's electro-pop songstress Ladyhawke has also joined the roster, she was previously booked by Modular, as does her fellow Kiwi Neil Finn.
And from Perth both Allbrook/Avery, featuring members of Tame Impala, joins Artist Voice and emerging electronic artist Ta-Ku joins the Artist Voice Electronic roster.
Danny Rogers-locally-managed Glasgow-based Chvrches follow-up from impressive showcases performances at SXSW with their deal.
