Why We Started This Company
The Artist Map is an early stage technology and music services company launched in 2011 by recording artist and producer John Mandeville to provide a solution for the growing artist development dilemma: how to empower emerging talent with the the skills, resources, and connections necessary to grow their dreams into a music career. This end-to-end solution is an innovative approach, empowering artists through a range of coaching, hosting, production, design, distribution and promotion services.
What Sets Us Apart
Artist Map offers a unique, peer-to-peer approach to mentoring, granting artists direct access to some of the best minds in The Biz. Through webinars and private coaching, we empower emerging talent in a timely and relevant way. Artist Map also provides a social space where artists can engage with fans. The Artist Map Community provides a full-range of tools for artists: media players, digital press kit, artist store, booking form, social network widgets to get the word out about their music.
Our Keys To Success
The Artist Map grew out of John Mandeville’s two decades in the music industry and his passion for helping artists navigate the rapidly evolving digital music era. As a hit songwriter, producer, artist, and current indie label owner, Mandeville brings a unique blend of expertise and relationships in both the traditional and modern music industry which he leverages to connect emerging artists with the real-world advice and resources they need to go to the next level in their careers.
