INTRODUCTION
AO Management is an artist management and development agency.
We work with artists, artist managements, producers, and Record labels to increase the public awareness of the artist, and the artists presence and image in the market.
We create a supportive environment for the artists we represent.
Working closely with artists and their managements to enhance their roles and resources, we can assist and help arrange all aspects of business and career development for the artists.
We specialize in Reggae and Hip Hop, but we do work with R&B, jazz and African artists.
We actively seek out opportunities for the artists we represent. Helping to create and maintain public awareness by looking to all medium available to present the artists. Keeping the artists name in the public. Identifying and connecting the artist with their audience and market place.
Booking is viewed as the binder for the artist. Financial support to the artist yes, but it is so much more. It is the best form of promotion for the artists, and cd sales. Coordinating booking with promotional strategies is key. We handle and monitor all phases of booking including touring.
We offer many in house services to our artists, such as video, website hosting and development, graphic services, travel arrangements, PR and project supervision.
We also offer services to the promoter, such as artist procurement, travel arrangements, and event management.
Our motto is, "We are the roots sinking deeper and taking stronger hold".
