Music Week about the success of the recently formed management company.
In October 2019, Saunderson – having previously spent more than 15 years at Notting Hill Music Publishing – made the move to Manchester-based indie label, Ostereo to launch its fledgling management division. It has already acquired a roster of 14 artists, writers and producers.
“Working with the team at Ostereo has afforded me a lot of freedom to work with acts I feel passionate about,” Saunderson told
Music Week. “It also means I’ve been able to approach our situation with pragmatism to ensure our talent continues to succeed during the adverse global circumstances. It’s been so rewarding to negotiate countless major deals for our roster during the pandemic.”
