Blackstar is an independent music marketing and digital artist strategy agency founded in 2018, working across the UK, US and Canada.
We work within artist teams, management companies, labels and distribution partners to take campaigns from strategy through delivery. We can own a defined workstream or coordinate the wider campaign across product and release management, audience, social, paid media, content, CRM, data and fan activations.
Every campaign needs a different mix of support. We can lead one workstream or build an integrated team around the project.
Before you reach out, please check that the service you require is listed.
We work with artists at every stage, alongside managers, labels, distributors, promoters, cultural organisations and entertainment brands.
Here are just a few.
We connect with the culture around an artist, creating moments that feel intentional rather than manufactured. We reflect the fans at your show & the fans finding you for the first time, creating intentional moments in marketing, not more noise.
We are always on the lookout for talented people to join the team here at Blackstar. If you would like to get onto our radar, please fill out the form below, adding a link to your CV, select "careers" in the drop-down, and we will get in touch if we have anything available.
Come behind the scenes
“Success is not measured in the amount of dollars you make, but the amount of lives you impact.” – Anon.
For us, impact isn’t an afterthought; it's embedded in how we work. We believe music and culture should challenge, heal, and empower, which is why we stand with organisations driving that change.
From Art Not Evidence, campaigning to stop rap, drill and other creative expression being used as evidence in court; to Together For Palestine, uniting artists and audiences in solidarity; and Small Green Shoots, opening doors for low income young creatives in the music industry.
Our partnerships extend to War Child UK, protecting children in conflict zones; Greenpeace UK, pushing climate justice to the forefront; Youth Music, building pathways for the next generation; and Music Support, providing vital wellbeing and addiction support across the industry.
Thanks for checking out our website. Please fill in the form below & we aim to respond swiftly, but first of all, be sure to check that we cover what you need in our services section.
