My journey in the music industry spans nearly 20 years, encompassing various roles and experiences. It began at 19, signing a record deal with my own band, followed by extensive touring in performance and tour management. After many adventures on the road, I took the leap with my self-made experiences and belief in myself with friends that also believed in me. The years of relentless hard work, success, and lessons after failure led me to my executive positions at SUMERIAN RECORDS and OUT OF LINE. My entire being has been spent to help artists and labels grow to become the best possible, and I cannot imagine a life where this isn’t a part of my DNA.

All of this emo rhetoric and reflection aside, my path has led me to explore a new direction with my career in music: I am setting up non-exclusive opportunities that prioritize my "artist-first" approach. My enthusiasm and drive remains deeply rooted in supporting and developing artists, whether signed or unsigned, and offering my expertise to record labels as well. My blend of experiences and genuine human instinct is something I believe is invaluable and should never be lost in the matrix. // Nick Walters-Ocean
