Big Hassle Media

One of US indie music's most respected publicity firms: album and tour campaigns for credible indie through legacy acts.

Best for
Artists with a story national press could actually run. Career-ready artists with strong music, professional assets, live momentum and a distinctive story who want an experienced national publicity team.
Skip if
Your first releases — too early. You are still defining your artist identity, have little audience or live activity, need low-cost DIY promotion or expect guaranteed coverage and streams.
First move
Approach with a finished record and a real angle. Review its roster for genre fit, identify the most relevant publicist and email a concise pitch with your strongest track, EPK, release timeline, story angle, recent achievements and publicity goals.
Watch out
This is selective, relationship-driven earned media, so acceptance and coverage are not guaranteed. Confirm the campaign length, target media, deliverables, reporting, fee and whether tour publicity is included before signing.
