Fellowship Artist Management Integrates Do Better For Artists
Executive Jordyn Reese joins the company, bringing Minus the Bear
The Fellowship Artist Management, the independent company launched by veteran artist manager Blaze James, has announced a collaboration with Do Better For Artists founder Jordyn Reese.
The details:
Reese will lead as an artist manager at The Fellowship.
She will continue to exclusively manage indie artist Minus the Bear, and work alongside James in signing and developing new talent for the company.
Do Better For Artists, the full-service management and artist services agency Reese founded in 2023, will now provide artist services support across The Fellowship roster.
That roster includes Coheed and Cambria, Failure, High Vis, Militarie Gun, Soul Glo and Matt Pinfield.
Backstory:
Reese has spent the past 15-plus years building and leading advertising and direct-to-fan marketing teams for global independent distributors.
She has also managed legacy artists, and delivered innovative experiential and digital advertising solutions across the independent and major-label ecosystems globally.
What they said:
Blaze James: “Jordyn brings a rare combination of creative instincts and operational firepower. She knows how to market records, scale audiences, and build real careers – all with the same DIY spirit The Fellowship was founded on.”
Jordyn Reese: “I’ve admired Blaze’s work for years and started my career doing day-to-day for some of his bands – he manages artists with integrity and a deep respect for the craft. I’m honored to join The Fellowship. This partnership allows us to build a home where artists can thrive with both long-view career vision and day-to-day strategic support with full creative oversight.”
