Supporting you on your journey
Accounting for artists, agents and people that make the music happen.
Whether you’re the one making the music or the one making the deals happen, we’re here for you. We work with artists at every stage of their journey, and the managers and agents who support them. We know your industry. We know your numbers nightmares. And (most importantly) we know how to ease your accounting stress.
VAT on European merch. Tour settlements. You’re juggling a lot. When you’ve got all this going on, you need an accountant who’s responsive, helpful, and actually gets it. We work with boutique agencies and managers who need a partner that’s genuinely easy to deal with. When compliance needs sorting, it’s dealt with quickly. When your artists have questions, we answer them properly.
Live fees. Session work. Merch. Royalties. A bit of teaching on the side. Sound familiar? Most working artists have income coming in from loads of different directions, with no clear picture of where it’s all going. We bring the focus. Whether you’re just starting out or are an established artist, we’ll handle the paperwork, so you can concentrate on the music.
