WHAT IT’S LIKE TO WORK WITH BRODIE:

“I worked intermittently with Brodie at MEGAPHONO and Kelp Management, from 2018 to 2021. I cannot recommend working with Brodie highly enough, for your project or contract.

Brodie is a powerhouse grant writer, with an ability to write clearly, descriptively, and tailor his work to match the values of each granting organization and artist.

As a coworker and manager alike, Brodie cares about the people he works with, and works to ensure their success and development. When I first started at MEGAPHONO, I had very little experience in the music industry, and Brodie’s guidance and training was invaluable to me.

Brodie is proactive and a self-starter - taking initiative in his work and holding both long term and short term planning in his mind at once.” - Norah Paton

“Brodie is a dream to work with. Not only is he super organized, thorough, and adept at managing multiple timelines, but he also brings a great attitude and enthusiasm to the project. His passion, admiration and fascination with music of all types is invigorating to be around. He brings a level of care to his work that is rare and auspicious.” - Rachel Weldon (Debaser)

"You can trust Brodie to clearly shape and articulate your creative ideas to granting agencies. As an editor and writer, his feedback is always invaluable. I look forward to working with him more in the years to come!" - Nick Schofield

"Brodie was able to offer us a fresh perspective on our approach towards strategic planning. His experience and knowledge of the industry allowed him to provide us with valuable contributions as well as clear benchmarking that helped us through career-changing decision-making moments." - Pony Girl

“Working with Brodie is the BEST – he knows how to do so much, so well. Brodie is extremely skilled as a musician. He can weigh in on the arrangement, or can create gorgeous guitar, bass, drum, and synth parts to add to any song. He is also an excellent sound engineer with the skills and equipment to do DIY-style recording sessions with professional sounding results. He is quick and knowledgeable in Ableton and can research solutions to any problems, or ways to get a unique desired effect when building and mixing a song. When we were working together on recording “True Friend” I offered Elvis’ “Can’t Help Falling in Love” as an ideal reference track and he was able to impressively lend all the skills I’ve already named toward bringing our song into the same world as the reference.

In addition to his musical skills, there are a few other things that make Brodie a unique and excellent person to collaborate with. He is extremely organized -- His organization works wonders to keep complicated projects on track as he can clearly identify what needs to happen next and has talent for managing files so that complex projects don’t turn into nightmares. Parallel to his skills for contributing to the artistic elements of a project, Brodie has a lot of professional experience writing grants, organizing shows, coordinating festivals, arranging tours, etc. so he is amazing to have on board once your project is rolling and ready to share with the world.

Working with someone who has such holistic knowledge of music creation and the music industry in general is wonderful because he can discuss all aspects of a project in an accessible and informed way. I highly recommend hiring Brodie to do…anything!” - Christina Bell
