Artist CONSULTING & COACHING
Supporting your journey as an artist — one song, one step, one stage at a time.
"Elke has been an incredible support and resource for me as I navigate the new music industry as an emerging pop artist / singer-songwriter. She knows the NYC live music scene very well, among others, and was able to give great guidance and essential tips as I navigated my first live shows in New York City, which can feel intimidating at first. Elke is encouraging and someone I trust to share my ideas with. She has always been able to add value with her experience, and wisdom. Elke is passionate about the work that she does and is a champion for independent emerging artists. She has always made me feel special even when at times I felt like a small fish in a big pond. There is no one route to success, and every artist's journey is different.
Elke has been there to help .”
"Elke's like the perfect music consultant cause she's super knowledgeable and always perceptive of the NY music and business scene. I'd come to her for advice many times for years and she always delivered. Some people are tastemakers and/or influencers but she's way more than that. She's a proactive and efficient advocate who gets things accomplished! Also she's trustworthy and genuinely down to Earth, which is few and far between in this scene. Always a solid recommendation."
