Hi ALLY OOP MGMT and signed artists,
Please note that should you as an artist or band require music industry assistance within Melbourne, my services are available as paid music industry consultations. My expertise within a boutique agency with extensive network is no longer free. After all the decades I have invested in my business and music industry career. I now have international artists contacting me anywhere from U.S, UK and Asia.
Things have been mega tough in Melbourne with show cancellations and low ticket sales overall with original artists. Tribute artists are bringing more people to shows. At the moment, I am only fully managing one band so I need to change my business strategy, you will understand.
I have been unable to offer many bands shows as it has been a struggle to find suitable headliners within your genre. Bands withdraw from lineups for different reasons. Many venues are not responding to show requests. Things seem to be really slowing down as an observation. For the original artists who think they can survive, with just the music, next to zero effort on social media, without a website or minimal effort on styling, you will be in for a real surprise. With all the competition out there now, financial pull to international concerts, , venues will close down and we will lose our scene. So I will be in contact with all signed bands in due course to check in if you would like to remain signed on as an artist.
Thank you for your time.
Keep rockn,
Ally
ALLY OOP MGMT
