"I’ve enjoyed working with Nick Phillips for many years: Nick the record company executive; Nick the producer; Nick the music business expert; and Nick the excellent musician and jazz historian. Nick seamlessly weaves his broad knowledge and different skill sets into one package. He’s helped me organize, focus, and achieve real results. For anyone who is serious about their career, I highly recommend working with Nick."

“My coaching sessions with Nick Phillips have been such a valuable investment in my career as a touring and recording musician (and label owner). Nick is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of the music business. He’s forward-thinking, creative, encouraging, and positive. I always leave each session with great ideas, a concrete plan, and feeling motivated and excited. I highly recommend his coaching and consulting services.”

"Nick brings years of invaluable music business experience and contacts to his clients. His grasp of the music business and the social media necessary for success are a great resource. I could not have had a successful launch of my latest recording without his help and I learned a lot under his guidance. Nick offers his advice to each artist individually so you can count on personalized advice for your career and project. Very highly recommended!"

“Rarely do you find anyone as experienced as Nick from an in-the-trenches perspective to a bird’s eye view. Highly recommended for his experience, musicality, and work ethic—always served up with a bit of humor while staying laser focused.”
