Hypebot began as an exploration for Skyline booking agency founder Bruce Houghton” “I saw the shifts happening in the music industry; and felt that I needed to understand and share what I’ve learned our artists.”
It’s grown into much more than that and his overlapping missions – booking great tours and helping great artists – are coming together under a new umbrella.
After more than 25 years as Skyline Music, the national boutique booking agency is rebranding as Skyline Artists Agency to better reflect its core mission – serving artists.
Skyline Artists Agency’s 60 diverse artists include Roger McGuinn, Poco, Atlanta Rhythm Section, The Lovin’ Spoonful, The Smithereens, The Motels, Zoe Keating, Darlingside and MarchFourth.
“We have always existed to serve a select group of artists,” said Skyline Founder and President Bruce Houghton. “But in the digital age, doing that effectively means going beyond just booking a date. Our name change to Skyline Artists Agency reflects that important shift, as well as, our ongoing work beyond music and in music tech.”
The company also publishes top rated music tech and new music industry site Hypebot.com.
“In addition to Skyline’s existing integrations with companies like StoryAmp, Songkick and BandsInTown to help promote every date that we book, we will be announcing more exciting partnerships in the coming weeks,” said Houghton.
Skyline Artists Agency has offices in Los Angeles, Nashville, New England, Virginia, Florida and St.Louis and is online at www.skylineartists.com.
