About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
My company is YKY MANAGEMENT, specialising in entertainment publicity. I also manage a very talented young solo musician - MANDY KANE (myspace/mkmusik), plus I am a partner in a management company called SONG BOX PTY LTD., representing a small group of songwriters and composers.
Recent publicity clients include LIBERATION MUSIC (New releases by James Reyne, Mark Seymour and Ian Moss), NOISEWORKS, THE MOVIE NETWORK (THE HENRY ROLLINS SHOW), MOLLOY BOY PRODUCTIONS (BoyTown), WARNER BROS. INTERNATIONAL in conjunction with DALLMEYER PICTURES (Project Managing the Daniel Radcliffe photo shoot, shot by Den Den at Dallmeyer), FILM VICTORIA (CHARLOTTE'S WEB project, in conjunction with Drummond Communications), L'OREAL AFI AWARDS 2006 (Vic publicity, in conjunction with Nix Co), and many more. Message me if you'd like more information.
Let me tell you a little about SONG BOX, a newly formed songwriter management company, with the aim of seeking licensing deals for a small group of brilliant - established - songwriters and composers based in Melbourne. Music supervisors, artist managers and A & R people, look no further. Again, message me if you want to hear more.
On a personal note, I'm clever, have two adorable puppies and brilliant friends (well, some of them are ....). Artist management is God's way of punishing me for not having children.
If you've ever received a prank call, it was probably me, and if you've met me, you're three degrees from Pope John Paul III.
