Their roster is both world-class and forward-thinking, and they represent artists whose work is redefining how music drives narrative. Together, we look forward to creating expanded avenues for growth across film, television, games, and emerging platforms.”
Patty Macmillan: “From the beginning, our agency has been about meaningful relationships, creative trust, and long-term career guidance. WME shares those values, and this partnership allows us to build on our foundation while offering clients the scale and reach of a global powerhouse.”
