Suit Music Management Scouts First Signee

Young Entertainment Professionals’ (YEP) founder/executive director, Andrew Cohen, has launched Suit Music management with his board member Jarrod Holley. The newly formed company has launched with Los Angeles-based investing partner, venture capitalist Aaron Trevethan.

The entrepreneurs are making the label, agency and publisher rounds taking meetings about talent and will announce their first signing in the near future.

“Being involved with a new music venture is something I’ve aspired to do for a while now,” said Trevethan. “As soon as Andrew and Jarrod approached me with the idea, I knew this was the team to do it with.”

Cohen, formerly of I.R.S. Nashville and Crush Management, has been mentored by industry stalwart John Grady throughout that time promoting Ashley Monroe, Striking Matches and Kristen Kelly.

Prior to moving to Nashville, Holley ran The Invasion Agency, his own regional booking agency in Ohio. In a merchandise capacity, he works with Eli Young Band and has offered tour management services for Frankie Ballard, Eric Hutchinson, Canaan Smith, and Sean McConnell.

YEP now boasts over 11,000 affiliates with a board of directors including publisher Beth Laird (Creative Nation), Mark Brown (Roundhill Music), Grady, Sara Knabe (BMG), Mark Montgomery (Flo/Co), and Holly Bell (Growth and Process Specialists Consulting).
