Hard Rock Hell Empire Launches Management And Consultancy Arm

– Jason McGuire, station manager of Hard Rock Hell Radio

Torpedo Recordings is the name of a new management services firm for rock and metal bands, created by Hard Rock Hell and based in London.

Jason McGuire, station manager of Hard Rock Hell Radio, and Jonni Davis, CEO of Chic Festivals, the promoter of Hard Rock Hell Festival in Wales, are heading Torpedo. Besides management and consultancy, its range of services includes label work, distribution, sponsorships, endorsements, marketing, PR, website development, radio and TV placements.

“When your doors are getting kicked in with young and exciting bands daily, you have to react. We think this one stop vertically integrated music solution could really help in a positive way,” Davis explained.

Torpedo is aimed at up-and-coming rock and metal artists, while the already established Off Yer Rocka Recordings will continue to focus on more established and international acts.

McGuire, who used to work many years in band management, tours, labels and media, said, “this is an extremely exciting opportunity for bands to get that lift-up to the next level. It’s every band’s dream to perform in front of bigger audiences and get themselves, seen, heard and talked about in as many territories as possible. This is now a reality and we can certainly help at Torpedo. With distribution & marketing available in over 200 countries worldwide, future Torpedo Talent will certainly be broadening their horizons.“
