About Me

Create or get your
very own MySpace LayoutsM.I.A. Management was formed after a huge need for Ska and Punk managers has never been successfully met. M.I.A. grew as an expansion idea from MissinkInAction (a graphic design and photography company).
M.I.A. Management strive to meet their artists needs. With an unflinching attitude towards all things positive, the Artist is able to maintain their integrity while being assisted through their career.
OUR ARTISTS:
CHASE LONG BEACH
Chase Long Beach are the new rising face of Orange County Ska. Formed in 2002 by frontwoman Karen Roberts CLB quickly moved among the masses. With several member changes CLB have settled on their current, and final, lineup. Their debut CD "LeBeC" is scheduled for release March 10th, 2007 independently in the United States with a UK release on Party House Records
FRANK AND HIS SKUNK ALLSTARS
(U.S. Management)
Frank and his Skunk Allstars hail from Germany and are our first over-seas client. Their eclectic mix of ska, punk, reggae, and metal appeal to one of the widest audiences around and are the reason for many sold out shows. Frank's political voice resounds through their music and will impact generations to come.
FANDANGLE
(U.S. Management)
Fandangle have been described as "A superb Act with a hyperactive stage presence playing infectious bounce-around ska” [BBC], Fandangle have exploded onto the UK ska/punk scene with their unparalleled energetic live performances and original yet catchy melodies, echoing through the skanking crowds at shows up and down the country. They have another extremely full tour schedule this year with over thirty dates already confirmed in the UK and abroad.
MR. SHIRAZ
(U.S. Management)
Mr. Shiraz have toured extensively for the past six years bringing their unique blend of rock 'n roll ska to the masses. They've amassed a very large dedicated following. Shiraz have also been picked up as the latest endorsee of Fender footwear in the UK. They will continue to relentlessly tour the UK and soon to be abroad in 2007.
OUTLAW NATION
Outlaw Nation combine aggressive acoustic folk funk, reggae, and neo-soul with a splash of lo fi indie hip hop vibes that people commonly call "Dirty Reggae Soul." Their sound is a testament to the old, new & future and that very musical anomaly! With several high profile tours in the works, you are sure to see a lot of Outlaw Nation coming to your town soon!
M.I.A. is also very pleased to announce that Infectious Talent , a terrific UK booking company, has come on board! The joint venture between the two companies allows for bands based in the States to travel overseas on tour and play in reputable venues; bands IT books are also now able to come to the United States and continue to receive help with an American based management company.
