Many times, I found myself returning to the occurrence of birds in MURMURATION, and how an individual\u2019s behavior, when done with purpose, has the ability to scale and create real impact. It\u2019s in that spirit that I\u2019m excited to begin 2021 with the creation of a new management company built upon this foundation. I look forward to exploring new opportunities to further grow and develop the careers of my artists alongside the support of their dedicated partners and teams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>BECKER spent the past 10 years at the CHICAGO-based EKONOMISK MANAGEMENT, where in addition to his roster, worked closely as part of ANDREW BIRD\u2019s management team before moving to NEW YORK in 2013 to open a second office for the company. MURMURATION will continue to co-manage client TIFT MERRITT with EKONOMISK.<\/p>\n<p>The roster includes ALEX LAHEY (DEAD OCEANS), BAYONNE (MOM + POP), OKKERVILL RIVER (ATO RECORDS), SONDRE LERCHE (INGROOVES) and TIFT MERRITT (YEP ROCK).<\/p>\n<p>Reach JUSTIN at <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allaccess.com\/net-news\/archive\/story\/203832\/mailto:justin@murmurationmusic.com?subject=I%20read%20about%20it%20on%20ALL%20ACCESS.\">justin@murmurationmusic.com<\/a> or, for more information, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.murmurationmusic.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.murmurationmusic.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allaccess.com\/net-news\" class=\"more\">\u00ab see more Net News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n        <\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaccess.com\/net-news\/archive\/story\/203832\/veteran-manager-justin-becker-launches-new-firm-mu\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Scott Becker (Photo: Jen Trahan) &#13; &#13; &#13; NEW YORK-based artist manager JUSTIN BECKER has launched a new management firm, MURMURATION, featuring a roster of present clients including ALEX LAHEY, BAYONNE, OKKERVIL RIVER, SONDRE LERCHE and TIFT MERRITT.\u00a0 Commented BECKER, \u201cThis past year has given all of us much to reflect [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":544,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[1597,1605,1604,1596,1612,1599,1606,1607,226,1603,1078,1600,1018,1611,1601,1595,103,1555,1608,1609,16,1598,1594,1610,1602],"class_list":["post-543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","tag-alex-lahey","tag-andrew-bird","tag-ato-records","tag-bayonne","tag-becker","tag-chicago","tag-dead-oceans","tag-ekonomisk-management","tag-firm","tag-ingrooves","tag-justin","tag-justin-becker","tag-launches","tag-manager","tag-mom","tag-murmuration","tag-music","tag-office","tag-okkervil-river","tag-okkervill-river","tag-pop","tag-sondre-lerche","tag-tift-merritt","tag-veteran","tag-yep-rock"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=543"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/544"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=543"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=543"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theguitar.rocks\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=543"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
