RISER x READIPOP

RISER can support and manage initial releases so that artists can focus on the creative process.

RISER helps bridge the gap into the production and release of planned/coherent body of new work (eg. singles/EP/mixtape) to better define their sound and present their work to the public and industry.

Success is be defined by a step change in the artist’s career development.

AIMS:

• To enable emerging artists to create a cohesive repertoire/collection of new music.
• To support a new project  eg. series of releases or  live ‘festival set’.
• To create and manage a promotional plan to support new music releases.
• To develop a plan to sustain artists to the next stage in their career (funding, touring, sync etc).
