In her new role, Mathews will oversee operations for Hailey Whitters, a recent Make Wake signee jointly managed by Chris Kappy and Make Wake and Matt Graham’s Los Angeles-based BRND Mgmt, home to Midland, Corey Harper, Desure and more.

Working with an artist as talented, dedicated, and persistent as Hailey is a dream come true and I’m so excited to partner with her on this journey.”
Make Wake is home to acts Luke Combs, Jobe Fortner, Drew Parker, Niko Moon, Whitters, and more.
