Record labels don’t develop artists. TMA does. How can we help you?

Now that the world is opening back up it’s time to get back to business! We are now scheduling Spring & Summer 2021 Music Management Consultations worldwide. There’s plenty of time to redeem 2020 and begin planning for a productive 2021.

TMA Artists are already planning their 2021 releases and tours. Are you?

For the solo artist or band, record labels aren’t developing artists anymore. Most will only consider picking up an artist who is already fully-developed. So, somewhere along the line the artist must invest in his/her development if they want to take their music to a national level. TMA provides that development service as well as ongoing management. And it all starts with the consultation.

For more information about our Artist and Ministry Management services, please complete the no-obligation Contact Form so we can send you the information you need to make a quality decision about your next steps. We look forward to hearing from you!

    Kathy Douglas, Indie Extreme

  • Gary spent a good deal of our consultancy time together asking important questions and listening. I was so pleased to find that Gary genuinely wanted to ‘get’ me first and then customize his services to exactly my needs. He did not have a one-size-fits-all approach at all! He took the time and had the skills and insight to ‘understand me and what I believe I’m called to do before supplying excellent advise for the path ahead. Not only have I found solid professional insight in Gary, I have found a potential ministry partner.

    Grant Norsworthy – Dove Award winner, Grammy nominee, bassist for Paul Colman Trio and SonicFlood

What We Offer

Artist & Ministry Development, Management, Promotions & Marketing - We Do It All!

TMA customizes its work with artists, bands, and other faith-based performing artists based on their individual needs. That can include:

  • Development Only – comprehensive development “from zero to hero” following the recommendations of the Client Evaluation Report from the Music or Ministry Development/Management Consultation;
  • Development & Management – complete development and management following the recommendations of the Client Evaluation Report from the Music or Ministry Development/Management  Consultation.
  • Management Only – you have everything developed but you need professional representation to the industry.
  • Business Plan Development – most artists, bands and small ministries do not treat their careers like the business that it is. We help you develop a professional business plan you can take to the bank!
  • Music Management Consultation Only – you need an industry-standard assessment of your career and a game-plan going forward
  • Production Only – world-class production utilizing A-Level session-players in Nashville.
  • Crowd-Funding – TMA’s Crowd Funding program creates a simple fund-raising campaign so your supporters can partner with you.
  • Marketing & Promotions – TMA Creative Group’s marketing tools to help you present a great first – and lasting – impression, from your website to a vibrant social media footprint.
  • Radio Promotions –  pushing great music to commercial and non-commercial radio worldwide through TMA Radio Promotions, an authorized representative of Play MPE.

Unlike other artist agencies, we do NOT limit access to our services. We do not bill by the hour, or give you a certain number of hours per month for this or that. Plus, everything we do to serve our clients is customized to suit their needs. No “one-size fits all” mentality here at TMA!
