ATC Live and Arrival Artists began working together in 2020, growing from an A&R (artists and repertoire) initiative into a transatlantic network built to maximise opportunities for their respective rosters. By uniting the agencies, ROAM is now able to provide both local insight and global connectivity through territory-focused teams specialising in tour and digital marketing, brand partnerships, philanthropic activations, as well as college, festival and private event booking.
Within the ROAM structure, the two divisions will operate as a joint venture sharing operational resources to unlock efficiencies and scale whilst maintaining financial independence with no changes to the existing ownership of ATC Live or ATC. The combined leadership team comprises the co-founders and senior management of both Arrival Artists and ATC Live.
ROAM will also interact with other parts of ATC in the same way ATC Live has historically done, providing additional opportunities for collaboration across the Group.
Alex Bruford, co-founder of ATC Live and Partner/Agent at ROAM commented: "We've proven our ability to take artists from clubs to festival headlines and arena touring, and to add value to established artists of all levels through diligent and strategic work. The creation of ROAM significantly enhances the choices that artists have for worldwide representation."
Adam Driscoll, CEO of All Things Considered Group plc, commented: "The creation of ROAM represents a significant step for the Group, strengthening our presence in the live agency sector. It formalises and extends a long-standing partnership with Arrival Artists, establishing a global platform of real scale. We believe this will create a global operating structure that will deliver long-term value by combining the reach of a major agency with the independence and focus that have underpinned our success to date."
