MIM 132: 15th June - The Managers Perspective with Jazz Rocket
Music Industry Mondays (MIM) is a free weekly event series held every Monday, bringing artists, creatives, and industry professionals together with guest speakers from across the music industry. Each session explores a different area of the business - from artists and managers to labels, festivals, publishing, marketing, and beyond. Expect honest insight, practical advice, and real-world experience, followed by an open mic and open Q&A.
Jazz Rocket is an artist manager, producer, songwriter manager and A&R consultant, and the founder of 67 Artists, a boutique management company built on a hands-on, artist-first approach.
Originally from Birmingham, Jazz first entered the music industry as an artist, achieving two UK Top 40 singles and touring internationally, including two UK arena tours. His experience on stage would later shape his approach to management, giving him a unique understanding of both the creative and business sides of the industry.
Before launching 67 Artists in 2019, Jazz worked at leading management companies ATC and Prolifica, where he managed and supported artists including Two Door Cinema Club, You Me At Six, Faithless, and Natalie Duncan.
Through 67 Artists, he manages and develops a roster of artists, producers and songwriters whose work has amassed billions of streams and contributed to records with global stars including David Guetta, Joel Corry, Bryson Tiller, Calum Scott, Ashnikko, Sonny Fodera, and many more.
Passionate about artist development and long-term career building, Jazz combines first-hand experience as a performer with a proven track record in management, A&R and songwriting, helping the next generation of talent navigate the modern music industry.
