These acts join Djo, Finn Wolfhard, Metric, The Black Angels, Ben Abraham, Phosphorescent, Karina Rykman, Durry and Ill Peach on Stern Management’s roster.
Colorado-based manager Jill Irvine began her music industry career at Larimer Lounge in Denver before moving on to roles at Saddle Creek Records and Paradigm Talent Agency.
Nick Stern, president of Stern Management, said: “Andrew is, first and foremost, a music lover with impeccable taste. I love his roster and his dedication to developing career artists. As Stern Management grows, having a UK presence has become essential, and Andrew’s ground-work in the market will prove invaluable to the company and our roster. Beyond our friendship, I’m excited for the energy that Andrew and Jill will bring to the company, and look forward to diving in.”
Andrew Mishko said: “I’ve known Nick for 10 years, and I’m thrilled that we’ve finally found a way to work together. Our perspective on this challenging industry is very aligned, and I’ve always respected what he does, particularly the time he puts into supporting his artists and the long lasting partnerships he has with them. I’m excited to team up with him, Marisa, and the rest of the Stern crew to help artists find their way through the chaos.”
