Make Wake Artists Teams With One Twenty One Management, Home to Muscadine Bloodline & More

Make Wake Artists has joined forces with Adam Hale's One Twenty One Management, marking a significant collaboration in the music industry. One Twenty One is currently home to artists such as Muscadine Bloodline, Ben Chapman, and Josh Weathers, with Ivan "Churro" Haro serving as day-to-day manager for the trio. Haro also manages the metalcore band Glasslands.

The partnership announcement was made on Wednesday, August 12. Founded in 2015 by Chris Kappy, Make Wake Artists represents a roster including stadium headliner Luke Combs and acts such as Flatland Cavalry, Cooper Alan, The Castellows, and Dylan Marlowe. The collaboration brings together Hale's established management experience with Make Wake's fan-centric approach, as both leaders share a commitment to nurturing exceptional talent.

Hale and Kappy first met in the UK while working together on Kip Moore's career and later collaborated on growing Make Wake Artists with a focus on the fans. Holley, who has been a close friend of Hale's for over 20 years, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, stating that it combines their shared values and creative vision. Kappy echoed this sentiment, highlighting the organic fit between Make Wake's artist-first approach and One Twenty One's artist-centric philosophy.

This collaboration is a testament to the power of shared values and long-standing relationships in the music industry. Both parties are excited about the potential opportunities the partnership presents for their artists and the future of the business.
