What We Do at EAR

Beyond Music—We Build Careers That Last

Most artists focus on making great music, but without a plan, strategy, and execution, even the best songs can go unnoticed. Maybe you've released a track without promotion, or spent big on production with no budget left for marketing.

That’s where we come in.

At Elton Audio Records, we help artists move beyond guesswork and into sustainable growth. Our focus isn’t just on releases—it’s on building your entire brand, audience, and revenue streams so your career can thrive.

MANAGEMENT VS. DEVELOPMENT

 

ARTIST MANAGEMENT

“A talent manager (also known as an artist manager, band manager or music manager) is an individual or company who guides the professional career of artists in the entertainment industry.”

— WIKIPEDIA.COM

Our Management program is designed for artists ready to scale. We focus on marketing, monetization, touring, and strategic growth, helping artists build sustainable careers.

This is for artists who meet our requirements and are prepared to take their career to the next level.

ARTIST DEVELOPMENT

“The concept of Artist Development began half a century ago with departments of record labels dedicated to cultivating an artist or group’s talent, and profiting from the results through a contract that has come to be known as the “360 Deal.” Modern artist development, however, is different. What used to be done by entire departments, has become the responsibility of the artist.”

Our 90-day Artist Development program is designed to fast-track your growth by refining your sound, image, and brand strategy. We connect you with producers, designers, and marketing experts to build your foundation for success.

This program is for artists who are serious about growth but not yet ready for management.
