Working With Whetstone

Most producers and songwriters find a manager through referrals or by reaching out directly to a firm that specializes in their craft. That is exactly what we do: producer and songwriter management built on 15+ years of placements and a hands-on, senior-level approach. No referral required. The form above reaches us directly.

We also take on A&R consulting, executive producing, and deal-making for artists, labels, and independent projects, per-project or ongoing, from pairing writers and producers to shaping a record from demo to final master. And because our team builds AI tools through Whetstone Digital, that representation comes paired with real fluency in rights, royalties, and catalog, an edge a traditional management firm can't offer.
