Meet Your Marketing Team

Venture Music is a Nashville based marketing collective built around one core idea: nothing matters more than the connection between an artist and their fans.

We’ve been at this since 2012, bringing together people who’ve experienced the music world from every angle. We’ve booked shows, run tours, made merch, shot videos, launched campaigns, and learned how to keep the heart of the music at the center of it all.

Everything we do happens under one roof, with ideas moving freely and creative minds working side by side. It’s a collaborative space where strategy and imagination come together to bring artists and fans closer in ways that last.
