I have worked with Perrin and Market the Music for over a decade, and continue to rely on his expertise. His passion for supporting emerging talent led to the professionally delivered  ‘Country Music Cocktails’ series at the Groundwater Country Music Festival, providing a platform for young performers. With a unique ability to promote and create innovative plans for both emerging and established talent,  his projects consistently have impact to wider industry and fans alike. If you need a real opinion and thoughtful direction Market the Music, have you covered.

In 2016, my band, The Dungarees were looking to break into the Australian market. As Canadians, the task seemed daunting, navigating the music scene in a country on the other side of the globe. Perrin and his company, Market The Music were instrumental in making it happen for us. Despite having never met any of us in person, Perrin went above and beyond, opening doors and presenting opportunities that otherwise would never have been possible for us. Since then, Perrin has become an integral part of our team and a close friend. We have now been to Australia 5 times and have grown our Australian fanbase considerably, each time reaching new markets through performances, media opportunities and radio play, all coordinated by Perrin and his team. We are indebted to Market The Music for their tireless work ethic. Enthusiasm, professionalism, industry connections, Perrin has provided it all and we are incredibly grateful.

Perrin understands marketing and music like few others, but his ability to mentor and understand the hard work artists need to put in to achieve success is the secret sauce to his service. As a media outlet, you know that a project from Market the Music will have the ingredients needed to succeed.

I have known Perrin for over 10 years. We first had contact as he pitched artists for the Country Rocks festival series. The acts were always A-class and did a great job for me. I have watched him mentor and guide artists from the very beginning of their careers to becoming full-time, successful, music professionals. Perrin has always had a knack for seeing things from a different angle, often pointing out things we are blinded by as we work so closely on our creative projects. Brewn has been working with Market the Music since 2023 and we could not be happier!

When I first met Perrin he was an annoyingly enthusiastic young bloke! Years later I’m pleased to say he has grown into an annoyingly enthusiastic older bloke… Haha. Perrin brings truckloads of enthusiasm to everything he does. His clients, both artists and events, get caught up in his enthusiasm and the music world is a better place for it. Perrin sees the big picture and has an uncanny ability to get the planets aligned with positive outcomes for all concerned. Perrin is a good man to have on your team. You can count on him.

I have had the pleasure of working with Perrin and Market The Music for over five years on various music projects focused on country music PR.   His extensive knowledge of the music industry and artist branding has been exceptional. Perrin is not only incredibly efficient and well-respected in the field, but also a skilled problem solver who approaches challenges with passion and enthusiasm.  I highly recommend Perrin and Market The Music for any music-related endeavours and I look forward to working on future projects together.

As a PR consultant working on many music festivals, tours and album releases over many years, I’ve encountered many artist managers. Some really stand out and are a cut above the rest. Perrin is one of them. The words that come to mind, are Gold standard and First class. He is genuine, professional, honest, enthusiastic and a really lovely bloke.

Perrin has always been very effective at conveying the story that I’ve wanted to tell in a thoughtful, thorough and innovative manner. He has an evidence-based approach to marketing and he delivers real world results. He is a music industry professional who I trust. He speaks with integrity and never makes a promise he can’t deliver on. I recommend Perrin’s work and advice to artists at any career stage.

I’ve been lucky enough to work with Perrin and his team for almost 10 years, and he’s truly incredible. As a music manager and marketer, he brings creativity, calm, and professionalism to every project. Every project we’ve worked on has been super organised, with amazing attention to detail. He’s brilliant at instilling confidence in artists, and his energy and honesty are always refreshing. What sets Perrin apart is his commitment. I’ve seen him, at his own expense, drive artists to set or to my studio for hair and makeup before the sun’s even up, and he’ll stay on set long after sunset. That’s the level of dedication he shows time and time again. He’s also not afraid to have tough conversations when needed, which is rare in this industry, but crucial for growth. I’m grateful to have him as both a friend and a colleague. His support and recommendations over the years have meant a lot, and his passion and dedication inspire me.

Perrin is a professional with a heart. Utilising his expertise to navigate through an industry that can be complicated and complex, has been invaluable for me. Market the Music has supported my efforts since early 2020, through an EP and 11 single releases. The guidance and feedback have saved me valuable time and effort, providing me with time to focus on my creativity and passion for music. Every single cover has been designed by Perrin, with pre-production and also coordination of the photo shoots, so that nothing is left to chance. Leveraging opportunities for my music career and having my best interest in mind, Perrin is also a great sounding board who is there to get the very best out of the artist.
