Platform Artists Announces Staff Additions, Strategic Partnership

May 18, 2022/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Platform Artists talent agency has expanded with a new strategic partnership, as well as new staff additions after launching at the height of the pandemic in 2020.

Founded by veteran agents Bryan Myers and Tony Johnsen, Platform Artists has formed a partnership with Emma Yarborough to build the speakers and comedians division for the agency. The company has also hired veteran agent Randy Humphries, booking coordinator Conner Osswald, and company coordinator Heather Jones.

“We could not be more thrilled to announce these new hires,” shares Myers. “Emma comes from a booking, artist management, and touring background and is a true self-starter. She is the perfect person to launch this new division and has already hit the ground running.

“And with Randy Humphries joining our team and bringing his decades of experience in booking Christian music artists, it is an exciting time for our team,” he continues. “We are also announcing coordinators Heather Jones and Conner Osswald. Tony and I are truly honored to give Emma, Randy, Heather, and Conner a new home and affirm the work they have already done in this industry. We see a very bright future ahead for all of us.”

“Platform represents the top artists in the Christian music industry, and I am unbelievably excited and honored to lead this new division representing speakers and comedians,” Yarborough adds. “My passion lies in elevating unique voices to the stage that need to be heard, and I can’t wait to see what is ahead for our artists as we expand into this new territory.”

“I’m excited and grateful to join Platform Artists,” notes Humphries. “We have an amazing roster full of talented artists, and I look forward to continuing to help change hearts and lives through Christian music.”
