The Agency Group (TAG) has acquired US-based boutique EDM agency Autonomous Music.
As part of the deal, Autonomous founder Chris Richards is joining TAG in its Los Angeles office.
Autonomous Music, an agency and management firm, was based in Portland, Oregon, US.
Richards brings with him a roster of artists including Emancipator (pictured), Ott, Blockhead, Wax Tailor, Mad Professor, Quantic, Novalima and Youngblood Brass Band.
“The Agency Group’s 360 vision for its artist’s falls in line with the approach and vision I have had while growing Autonomous Music,” said Richards.
“Joining my roster with theirs at this time is part of the natural progression for my clients careers, and will bring many new and exciting business and branding opportunities for us all.”
“Chris’s ability to identify talent, booking experience, and eclectic roster will significantly contribute to The Agency Group’s ongoing efforts to expand its electronic music footprint globally,” added Natalia Nastaskin, CEO of TAG’s US operations.
