Public Relations Director for Innovative Artist

San Francisco CA

Description

I am a DJ, I am an Artist, and I have personally found venues to be unresponsive to shameless self promotion. That is why I am seeking help from a Public Relations Director--to help with venue outreach, booking, event planning, any other fun stuff that will pop up invigorating our brand with life and meaning. Goals for our brand include world-class party experiences, technology-pushing content creation, renowned dance festivals, music programming for runway shows, video games, commercials, TV, film, and NFTs. I have been collecting singles, albums, artists, and sounds from genre pushing artists of tomorrow well before they achieve success and accolades in their music careers for nearly two decades now, as well as having explored definitive music of our past--and have created the most comprehensive, revolutionary collection of modern dance and R&B music not yet gifted to mankind. I am extremely confident in the years of work that has gone into collecting exquisite works of art and music and developing a specific, highly evolved taste for sound that seamlessly binds one cut to the next, like a woven textile; I know our brand will easily be recognized as influential taste-makers in the space, and our brand will easily become a gift that keeps on giving.
