Proven Results in Music Management & PR
Creative Sounds UK is a music management and PR agency with over 13 years of experience developing artists, producers, and songwriters across the UK and internationally. We have a wide experience of getting the right teams in place. From publishing to pitching, booking shows and tours as well as advice on securing radio airplay and recording agreements, we guide the careers of artists and acts that we represent. We have facilitated live recording sessions, interviews, and current affairs broadcasts on BBC radio. We've also been involved in a range of film related projects.
Our association with a number of music related brands, media agencies, and charitable causes has contributed to creating exciting and relevant content by integrating the artists we represent with the branded music and entertainment space. Please get in touch if you'd like to discuss integrating a particular artist/s into a campaign or how you could use music as part of your marketing strategy.
We work closely with our artists to build sustainable careers — combining strategic PR, live opportunities, and long-term development. Our work has resulted in national radio play, sold-out shows, major industry partnerships, and international showcases including SXSW.

Testimonials
"Ade is a true gem in the industry! He is organized, dedicated, and has a true love and knowledge for music. He is very well connected throughout the UK, and really set me up for success during my several years living in the UK. He is a natural connector, finding the best producers, opportunities, venues, musicians, and PR people that fit your particular genre. I’m so grateful for my experience and time with Ade as my manager during my time in the UK and would highly recommend him for any artist who is looking to grow their grassroots artistry, build confidence, and make connections." Adeline Um
"I have known Ade for many years and always been impressed with his commitment and dogged determination to do his best for any act he is associated with. He possesses a real knack for getting the right doors to open and has managed to secure many opportunities for his artists that they would never have achieved alone. Not wishing to ‘rest on his laurels’, Ade is constantly hungry and eager to learn about the ever-changing industry in order to keep abreast of new ways to promote and elevate the profiles of his roster. Furthermore, you’d struggle to find more honest and up-front representation."
Ross Griggs (Unbelievable Music UK)
"It’s easy to recommend Ade. He introduced me to his band The Broken Witt Rebels
He made life simple when we booked them for our Rising Stars series, and then our Best of Rising Stars showcase. He is honest, straightforward and one of those rare guys where his word is his bond. He has a good ear too, and we are already looking at his new acts."
Ray Jones (Business Development Director, Time Out London)
Working with Ade (Creative Sounds) was easy because he’s a good listener and genuinely wants the best for the people he works with, with a real commitment to the arts. Other than being a great support and liaison, we collectively managed to accumulate a larger following, including Jazz FM support, features on Spotify editorial playlists as well as building a large network of established collaborators and people that I can rely on and further work with in the future. Ade aided me to work on my album, linking me up with Manchester jazz bass player/arranger Stuart Whitehead, which led to the creation of Still Waters, my four piece jazz band.
During our time together, we secured a nice amount of radio plays, harbouring support from Jess Iszatt on BBC Introducing, as well as from BBC R6 with Victoria Jane. Also thanks to Ade, after linking me up with Franklin Sinclair with Global Soul, they helped me put on my live album launch event as well as featuring me many times on the Global Soul Charts and being one of my biggest supporters. I appreciate all he has done and thank him for being a massive help on my music journey. Millie Mountain
