Austin Marshall has joined Starstruck Entertainment in the role of manager and director of artist development. His colleagues include Starstruck Management Group’s Narvel Blackstock, Brandon Blackstock and Kelli Haywood.

Marshall, who formerly served as executive vice president of Play It Again Publishing, will focus on signing and cultivating new talent for the management team including songwriters for Starstruck Writers Group at the music entertainment agency.

“As we continue expanding artist development at Starstruck, I am very proud to have Austin Marshall join us as a manager and director of artist development,” said Starstruck Entertainment founder Narvel Blackstock. “Austin’s experience in artist development, touring and music publishing will be a great asset to all the artists currently at Starstruck and to new talent we will be developing.”

“The industry has neglected the process of developing emerging artists. They’re not developing artists, they’re developing singles. At Starstruck, that’s not the case,” said Marshall. “We are working with individuals who are passionate about their craft, committed to making music for their developing fan base and determined to put it all on the line as an entertainer. I am thrilled to be in an environment where we can give those artists, new and established, every opportunity to realize our shared vision.”
