My Interests

TESTIMONIALS:

"As the Street Team Leader for Thirsty Merc, Kirri Liepins is my liasion for the Newcastle & Central Coast region and has been a massive help in organising all aspects of Street Teaming in that area. Thanks to her background in music business, I'm also able to seek advice and suggestions when I might be uncertain of which path to take. I'd highly recommend her business and skills to any prospective clients, it's true service with a smile!"
Carina Nilma, Thirsty Merc Street Team Leader

"It is with pleasure that I can highly recommend Kirri and her team to GET THE JOB DONE !!!!!!.As any artist will tell you…..it is all about EXPOSURE,and this is exactly what this girl delivers.As Manager and Agent for Jon Stevens I can attest that Kirri has on numerous occasions delivered the goods.I would highly recommend her for any job with regards to exposure and delivery for your product or artist."
Ben Elias, Manager (Jon Stevens)

"Kirri assisted in the promotion of my 2004 solo release and coordinated my official street team, which she continues to run to this day. Kirri's involvement in the campaign was imperative, and she took to her tasks with enthusiasm. I found her to be deeply committed, efficient and a pleasant person to communicate with. I wish Kirri the best of luck in her ventures and highly recommend her to anyone."
Jon Stevens (singer/songwriter)

"Rock Solid is awesome!! I highly recommend Kirri and the team to any artist wanting promotion or street team management.... Second to none!!!!"
Shane Fritsch

Music:

"Music is an art that expresses the inexpressible. It rises far above what words can mean or the intelligence define. Its domain is the imponderable and impalpable land of the unconscious." (Charles Munch)
