One Little Indian’s Head of Press launches Brixton Agency’s UK office

19 February 2018 - Press release

One Little Indian Records’ Head of Press, Katie Malcolmson, has announced the launch of US-based music PR company Brixton Agency's UK office, offering personalised national and regional print and online PR services, whilst also continuing as PR for One Little Indian’s roster as part of the new venture.

The agency works with the likes of Circa Survive, La Dispute, Modern Baseball, Kevin Devine, Jeff Rosenstock, Bouncing Souls, Sorority Noise, Tiny Moving Parts, Vundabar, Axel Flóvent and more.

Speaking about the launch of Brixton Agency UK, Malcolmson commented: “I’m incredibly excited to be able to give Brixton Agency a home in the UK, as well as continuing to work with the fantastic roster of One Little Indian Records. Coming from a label background as a PR, you are equipped with a far greater understanding of the inner workings of an entire campaign, from marketing to radio to international – something that some agency PRs tend to overlook. You are able to look at the bigger picture and create bespoke campaigns to suit each artist and label.

“I’ve admired Brixton Agency co-founders Sean Patrick Rhorer and Talia Miller for many years, having seen first-hand how they’ve grown the company in the US. They’ve been the first to discover some of my favourite artists and they truly have their respective fingers on the pulse of new music. I think their success is rooted in the fact that they are genuinely fans of every artist they work with. I’m excited to be able to do the same thing in the UK, presenting some awesome US artists to the UK music media as well as home-grown talent.”

Prior to working in-house at One Little Indian, Malcolmson was based at revered agency 9PR, working alongside the team there on campaigns for neo-classical giants Hauschka and Max Richter as well as Fat Cat’s experimental arm 130701, The Album Leaf, Hannah Peel (The Magnetic North), Danny Goffey (Supergrass), Tigercub, Johnny Foreigner, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly, and Sego amongst others. Malcolmson has since overseen and executed successful PR campaigns at One Little Indian for the likes of Icelandic alt-pop star Ásgeir, rising contemporary classical pianist and producer Poppy Ackroyd, exciting indie-electronic singer-songwriter Tusks, Icelandic post-punk champions Fufanu, cult soul singer Cody ChesnuTT, Mercury-nominee Kathryn Williams, Parisian producer s a r a s a r a and famous folk artist Marry Waterson, to name a few.
