Overview
Arrival Artists is an independent music booking agency born in 2020 out of the most unlikely of scenarios. Its six founders, all long time friends and colleagues, seized an opportunity to create a home that champions art above all else and a team-based company culture that is inclusive from top to bottom.
Trained as independent agents, fortified by years of major agency experience, we are creative entrepreneurs with culturally-relevant rosters. Arrival represents success stories across nearly every genre and has a proven track record of developing talent from small underground clubs to large halls, theaters, and arenas.
