"Pop till you drop"

    • about me
    Signing bands is my job. I've worked for many small indie labels as well as the corporate monoliths. I'm sure you've heard some of my bands on the radio. Working for the corporate a-holes these days pays my bills in a big way, but doing this for the fans at the MP3 Jackpot really rocks my world.
    what i look for
    is an artist who can blow my socks off live and also the can deliver the goods in the studio.
    i'm into
    traveling around the world to find new talent, and helping them develop and become popular.
